How does a multimeter read volts?

A multimeter reads volts by measuring the electrical potential difference between two points in a circuit. It does this by sending a small known current through the circuit and measuring the voltage drop that occurs. The multimeter then displays this voltage drop as the voltage value on its screen.


How to use a multimeter effectively for measuring electrical parameters?

To use a multimeter effectively for measuring electrical parameters, first select the appropriate setting for the parameter you want to measure (voltage, current, resistance). Next, connect the multimeter leads to the circuit or component being measured. Ensure the multimeter is set to the correct range and polarity. Finally, read the measurement displayed on the multimeter screen and record the value if needed.
