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.

What is the Unit of capacitance in ohm and meter?
Capacitance is measured in Farads. "The unit... in ohm and meter" does not make sense.
Construction of ohm meter and megger?
Ohm meter is basically a series combination of resistances and galvanometer and source of current .Used to determine unknown resistance.
What meter has its own power supply?
ohmmeter has it's own power supply
How does one determine the ohm value of an unmarked speaker?
I believe the ohm meter will read about 90% of the true ac impedance.
When a voltmeter is connected to a resistor what will it read?
If you place an OHM meter across a resistor, it will read resistance. An OHM meter set to read voltage will read any voltage present. So, if you pick up a resistor, connect it to a volt meter, in theory, no voltage will be present. Unless you're feeding some sort of electricity through it. I'm certainly not an electrical engineer, I do however use a volt/ohm meter occasionally. A volt/ohm meter is a dual/multi purpose piece of equipment.
1ohm meter how many mega Ohm cm?
1 Ohm meter X (Mega Ohm/ 1000 Ohms) X (100 cm/meter) = 100/1000 Mega Ohm cm = 0.1 Mega Ohm cm method: dimensional analysis
What is the Unit of capacitance in ohm and meter?
Capacitance is measured in Farads. "The unit... in ohm and meter" does not make sense.
How do you convert ohm meter to megohm kilometer?
if it is ohm meter and not ohm per metre; divide by 1,000,000 to convert ohm to megaohm, then divide by 1000 further to convert metre into kilometre
What meter has its own power source?
Ohm meter
How do you check the injectors on a 6.2 dielse with ohm meter?
You can check glow plugs with an ohm meter. should be <1ohm
How do you ohm out a motor?
To ohm out a motor one would use an ohm meter. If one does not own or can not obtain a meter, the motor can be taken to a shop and ohmed out there for a fee.
How do you test a rheostst?
ohm meter
How do you chack risestance?
With an Ohm meter.
Which is a measurement of resistance?
By ohm meter.
How can you tell if your fan fuse is blown in your car?
Remove the fuse and check it with a ohm meter. If you have no ohm meter then just replace it with a new fuse.
Why not use an ohm meter to check leakage in a wires insulation?
An ohm meter doesn't put out enough voltage, you need to use a megger.
What are the functions of the Volt Ohm Meter?
as a tester
