A: It harder for the simple fact that the shunt resistance must be very small and precise to give a corrupt reading. As amps increases problems crap up like the very small shunt value not forgetting then now power dissipation comes to trouble us with thermal inaccuracy due to heat
Resistance is measured with an ohmmeter. A link is provided to a brief article on the ohmmeter posted at Wikipedia.Note that it is unusual in this day and age to have a device that will measure ohms and nothing else. The ohmmeter is usually included among the functions of a multimeter, and usually a digital multimeter or DMM.
I test it with a digital multimeter. Set it to measure the voltage you're expecting, verify that the circuit is powered (put the red probe to the positive side of the circuit, and find a different ground), then move the black probe to the intended ground. You should be reading the voltage you're expecting if the ground is good.
rms values refer to "root mean square" mathematical values of the sine wave of electricity. This is essentially an "average" value of the voltage being measured as voltage in any circuit varies constantly.
look at the multimeter! it has TWO LEADS touch them either side of the part you want to measure! wow I'm sure you could have answered that one yourself if you bothered to look at it!
A multimeter is used to measure various properties of electricity. The "multi" refers to it multiple functions which can range from volt meter, current meter, resistance meter. The most common use would depend on the users preference to what is needed and measured most frequently.
Because to measure amperage you must connect the multimeter in series , in order to do so the circuit must be broken first. In the case with voltage measurements the multimeter probes must be connected in parallel which is far easier because connecting the multimeter this way the circuit will remain intact.
If you don't have a battery load tester, you'll have to use a digital multimeter to test for voltage and amperage.
To measure voltage, current and resistance.
The current is the amperage. It is measured in series. Voltage is measured across the line (parallel).
A multimeter.
Unfortunate.
A multimeter.
A: Depends on the meter it measure ohms, voltage, current. some may test for transistor beta health of battery and then some

First connect the positive terminal of the voltage line to positive terminal of multimeter and negative to negative terminal of multimeter. Select voltage in multimeter and measure the voltage
It generally reads RMS value of the voltage being measured
A volt meter can only measure voltage. A multimeter can measure other items such as resistance and continuity.
