Is 24.0 mfd a good test reading for a 24.5 mfd run capacitor with a multimeter?

That would depend on the tolerance of the capacitor. As the measured value is only about 2% below nominal and most capacitors have 10% or 20% tolerance it should be fine. However if it was a precision capacitor with for example 1% tolerance it would be bad.


Why does resistance value measured using multimeter differ from one decoded using colour band?

Resistors have tolerance. So does the multimeter. Standard resistors range from 20% (no fourth band), to 10% (fourth band silver), to 5% (fourth band gold). Resistors will not normally measure exactly what you expect, and proper circuit design must take this into account.The multimeter may not be calibrated correctly.


Count in multimeter?

The "count" of a multimeter refers to how large a number it can display before it has to change measurement ranges, and how many digits it shows total. This affects how precise a measurement the meter can display (note: this doesn't necessarily reflect absolute accuracy, just precision of the numbers it can report.) First, the total number of digits of the count matches the digit count of the display. A x00 count multimeter only displays 3 digits, while a x000 shows 4 digits. So a 200 count meter could read 19.9 volts, while a 2000 could read 19.91 for the same input. Second, the value of the first digit indicates when the meter needs to "move up" to the next range. A 2000 count multimeter would read 19.99 volts as 19.99, but at 20 would have to read 020.0, loosing a digit of precision. The same thing happens at higher and lower ranges, each time having to move when the top digit reaches 2. For comparison, a 4000 count multimeter would up-range whenever the top digit gets to 4, allowing it to read 20-39.99 volts with two decimal places where the 2000 cannot. I suspect, but cannot confirm, the count limits in digital meters are due to the A/D converter used, and the number of output bits it has. This matches up with the common count values being close to powers of two.


How can you test a battery?

You can test a battery by using multimeter. Set the multimeter to the DC voltmeter setting and then place the leads of the multimeter across the leads of the battery. the multimeter will have a readout of the voltage.

Why is engineering tolerance important?

Because you can count on parts to not be perfect. So if you want them all to fit, the need some room for the grease.

What are the types of multi tester?

A Multimeter is an electronic instrument, every electronic technician and engineer’s widely used piece of test equipment. A multimeter is mainly used to measure the three basic electrical characteristics of voltage, current, and resistance. There are two types of multimeters: Analog Multimeter: The Analog Multimeter or VOM (Volt-Ohm-Milliammeter) is constructed using a moving coil meter and a pointer to indicate the reading on the scale. Digital Multimeter: We mostly used a multimeter is a digital multimeter (DMM). The DMM performs all functions from AC to DC other than analog. It has two probes positive and negative indicated with black and red color as shown in the figure. there are some best multimeters for HVAC.
