Which instrument would be used to measure current flowing in a circuit?

A multimeter set to measure current (in amperes) would be used to measure current flowing in a circuit. The multimeter needs to be connected in series with the circuit to accurately measure the current.


How to measure current?

To measure current, you would typically use a multimeter set to the appropriate current measurement range. First, ensure the circuit is off, then connect the multimeter in series with the part of the circuit you want to measure the current flowing through. Turn on the circuit to get a reading of the current flowing through that part of the circuit. Remember to set the multimeter to the correct range for the expected current to avoid damaging the meter.


Do You measure current across a circuit?

A current flows through, not across, a circuit. And, yes, you can measure it using an ammeter.


What does an Ammeter do in a series circuit?

To measure current in circuit


When measuring current always place any type of meter in series with the circuit--is this true?

No. While it is true that one can measure current at any point in a circuit by breaking the circuit at that point and inserting the meter, not any meter will do it. One must use an ammeter to measure current.


How do you use a multimeter to measure electrical current?

To measure electrical current using a multimeter, set the dial to the current measurement setting, typically labeled as "A" for amperes. Then, connect the multimeter in series with the circuit you want to measure. Make sure to follow proper safety precautions and never measure current on a live circuit. Read the current measurement displayed on the multimeter screen.


What is used to measure the intensity of current flow in a circuit or branch in a circuit and is wired in series with the circuit being evaluated?

An ammeter is used to measure the intensity of current flow in a circuit or branch in a circuit. It is wired in series with the circuit being evaluated to accurately measure the current passing through that specific part of the circuit.
