Resistance
What else can I help you with?
What are the functions of ohm meter?
Measures resistance.
Why not use an ohm meter to measure the leakage in wire insulation?
An ohm meter measures resistance in a circuit, not leakage in wire insulation. To measure insulation resistance or leakage in wire insulation, you would typically use a megohmmeter or insulation resistance tester, which applies a higher voltage than an ohm meter to test the integrity of the insulation.
What should a ohm meter read if a circuit is open?
Infinity.
Circuit continuity is measured using?
Circuit continuity can be tested by using an ohm meter.
Why would never measure resistance in a circuit carrying a current?
If the circuit is carrying current then that means that the load (resistance) is in the circuit. if an ohm meter is connected in the live circuit then there would be some voltage drop at the ohm meter but as the meter has very less resistance, this would damage the instrument.
What does the am meter do in a circuit?
An ammeter measures the amount of current flowing in a circuit
What unit measures resistance to electrical current?
Unit measure for resistence is called as "OHM". Its law is called as "OHM'S LAW".
How do you test resistance in a circuit?
With a meter that measures Ohms.
What must be disconnected from a circuit under test before connecting the ohm meter to the circuit?
The power source must be disconnected from the circuit under test before connecting an ohm meter to prevent potential damage to the meter or the circuit. This ensures that there are no active voltages present while taking resistance measurements.
What does OL mean on a ohm meter?
It means there is an open circuit. You could translate as zero Load.
How is a water meter like an ammeter?
water meter measures the water pressure ,meanwhile an ammeter measures thr current of the circuit
What is the function of an ohm meter?
An Ohmmeter is a device that is used for the measurement of Electrical Resistance. An ideal Ohmmeter consists of an electronic circuit having a constant current [I] passing through a resistance [R] & another circuit that measures the voltage[V]. Thus from Ohm's Law R= V/I. Micrommeter(or) Microohmmeter : To measure Smaller Resistances. Megohmeters (or) Megaohmeter (or) Megger : To measure Larger Resistances. e.g. Insulation Resistance of Electrical Cables.
