Use the next higher scale than the voltage you are trying to read. It should be either 20 or 30 volt DC

How do you measure a resistor using multimeter?

a multimeter probably has a Ohm meter as well. If yes, use it and make sure you have the correct scale adjusted. If there is no Ohm meter you should calculate the resistance using Ohms Law. So if you use your multimeter as an Amp meter (in series with the unknown resistor) and you apply a know voltage across you should be able to calculate the resistance by dividing the voltage you applied by the current you meassured (R=v/I) ANSWER: 1 make sure ther is no external power connected 2 short the leads together and adjust for zero reading on the meter. This step is necessary to eliminate the internal battery drifting with time. Unlike voltage and amps reading the scaling of the meter is not important to begin with since a peg meter or a overflow will not destroy the meter immediately but do change the scale to get maximum deflection or digital display.That it


What is 1 ohms on multimeter?

One ohm is a particular reading on the ohms scale of a multimeter. It corresponds, per Ohm's Law, to the resistance that a current of one ampere would cause a potential difference of one volt across. (Or one millampere and one millivolt, however it happens to scale.)


Is a trumpet a insulator or conductor?

A Trumpet is usually mostly brass, a metal. Metals are conductors, so... By deduction a trumpet is a conductor. You can easily test this if you have access to a trumpet and a multimeter. Use the "ohms" scale of the multimeter...
