Why would you get a negative voltage reading?

Because the meter is connected backwards

the voltage regulator


You were driving your aerostar van and it just stopped going the motor kept running but it would go any where?

either out of trans. oil , or tranmission is shot


How would you zero the VOM on the direct current voltage?

To zero a VOM on DC voltage, leave it unconnected - in DC voltage mode - and then adjust the meter zero screw until it reads zero.


Why would never measure resistance in a circuit carrying a current?

If the circuit is carrying current then that means that the load (resistance) is in the circuit. if an ohm meter is connected in the live circuit then there would be some voltage drop at the ohm meter but as the meter has very less resistance, this would damage the instrument.


How do you repair the voltage meter on a 1994 Ford Probe?

you can't repair one you would have to buy a new one and put it on


How do you test to see if wires are live?

With a voltage detector or a multi meter. Don't touch the wires to your tongue. That would be bad!


What would the cable size be for a 90 meter armoured cable with a 110 amp supply with a 330 amp start up?

To calculate voltage drop to size the wire, a voltage must be stated.


Why does 120 volt outlet read 145 volts on meter?

A reading of 145 volts is high. The first thing that I would check is the accuracy of your meter. Check the voltage reading at different locations for example, friends homes, to see if the reading is still high there. If it is check your meter reading against another meter. If you are sure that your meter and reading is correct then call the utility company and get them to check the voltage for you.


What is wrong with your single phase electricity meter if it does not show any numbers in the meter reading panel?

One of the conditions that would cause this is that there is no supply voltage to the top of the meter. Another problem could be, the neutral tickler wire has become disconnected.


How do you identify the hot wires if they are not white or black?

You can use either a volt meter and go from the line in question to ground and see if you have voltage. You can also get a non contact voltage tester which is what I would use and place it on the wire in question and it will beep if voltage is present.


How do you measure voltage?

Voltage can be measured using the difference between the potentiel between two ends of wire or by using a volt-meter. You can easily measure volt by volt or multimeter but remember voltage always measure across the components but in parallel
