An Avometer is a high-quality British-made analogue multimeter, regretfully no longer in manufacture, but widely-found in electrical laboratories and engineering workshops. The acronym, 'avo', stands for amperes, volts, and ohms.

What are the advantages of using an Oscilloscope over a voltmeter?
In the name of Allah,the most Gracious,the most Merciful... The Oscilloscope has several advantages over a voltmeter, for example if you want to determine a signal parameters [ voltage values (max,peak-to-peak,rms,average...etc),frequency,offset...etc ] using measurement tools: 1- You can use the Oscilloscope whatever the signal frequency is, but you can't use the Avometer unless the signal frequency is 50 to 60 Hz. 2- The Oscilloscope shows you the shape (form) of the signal, while the Avometer doesn't. 3- You can determine the maximum value of the signal (max voltage) and peak-to-peak voltage when you observe the signal on an Oscilloscope,hence you can calculate the rms (root mean square) value, i.e. the effective value , the average value and the offset of signal form the time axis (the horizontal axis). While an Avometer can only give you the rms value.
Why can't the resistance cannot be measured with ammeters and voltmeters?
It can be calculated by a multimeter. [aka. avometer (ampere voltage ohm meter)]. A single voltmeter or ammeter could not measure resistance because this process need calculations. That means the device must be able to measure the voltage and current at the same time.
What is avo meter?
avometer comes from " avo " and "meter". 'A' means amperes, to measure electrical currents. 'V' means the voltage, to measure voltage. 'O' means ohms, to measure ohms or resistance. finally the meter or unit of measure. often reffered to as AVO meter multimeter or multitester. AVO meter is a device for measuring voltage, current, both AC and DC and electrical resistance.
You have an avc avometer transformer 100 amps 100 ma it says to use with avc model 7.8 heavy duty avometers it looks old what is it used for?
Measuring currents to 100A A.C. You set the meter to 100 mA and connect the transformer output to the meter. When the primary current is connected the meter will read the current flow. Full scale (100mA) then means 100A in the transformer, so you multiply the scale reading by 1,000.
What is the hot wire white black or green?
The hot wire on a lamp cord will be the the side that has the more narrow prong on the plug-in. Or you can look at the cord and whichever side is smooth, (not ribbed but smooth), is your hot wire.
