Resistance is the name given to something which opposes the flow of an electrical current in a circuit and an ohmmeter is used to measure it.
The Ohm is the name of the unit used to measure resistance.
Further note
The most common type of instrument used to measure resistance is a multimeter, which includes an ohmmeter, an ammeter to measure the current flow in amps and a voltmeter to measure the potential difference in volts.

An ammeter is used for what?
An ammeter is an instrument which is used for measurement of current flowing in any circuit
What instrument measures electrical earth resistance?
A multimeter device can measure resistance, current, AC/DC voltage, and it also can determine continuity on an electrical circuit, and its range for current, voltage and resistance is widely variable.
What measures the volume of electrons through a circuit?
Current measures the flow of electrons through a circuit and voltage basically measure the amount of available electrons.
What is the 'job' of an ammeter in a circuit?
It measures the current.
Type of transformers used in gas insulated substation?
Current transformer and voltage transformer . This transformers are actually measuring instruments which measures the quantity of current and voltage coming out of the substation.
What instrument measures electricty?
A multimeter can measure different things related to electricity, including current and voltage.
An ammeter is used for what?
An ammeter is an instrument which is used for measurement of current flowing in any circuit
What instrument measures electrical earth resistance?

Voltage muiltiplied by resistance measures to current?
No. Voltage divided by resistance is equal to current.
What instrument measures the direction of current?
ammeter
What instrument measures direct current?
Voltage . . . DC voltmeterCurrent . . . DC ammeterThe "ohmmeter" is also fundamentally a DC ammeter at heart.Frequency . . . DC doesn't have frequency.
What instrument measures alternator output?
An ammeter. It measures the electrical current output.
What is a ammet?
An instrument that measures electric current in amperes.
What instrument measures the electric equipotential?
Multimeter is an instrument that measures electric equipotential. Equipotential lines can be determined by connecting various points of electric potential or voltage.
A calibrated instrument that measures the amount of current present is?
an 'ammeter'
What is the instrument called that measures current?
The instrument used to measure electrical current is called an ammeter, which is actually a shortened form of 'amp meter'. The current is measured in amperes. In scientific labs, a much more sensitive instrument called a galvanometer is used to measure very small currents.
What instrument measures current flowing through wires in a house?
galvanometer
