It depends on what you want to monitor. Most commonly the volt meter is connected in parallel with the battery or the alternator.
It is a 12 volt battery. Fully charged it will read 12.6 volts with a digital volt meter.
Set your multimeter on the 20 Volt DC scale.
connect the 2 six-volt batteries together one terminal each positive to negitive, this will make a 12-volt combination, then you can connect the jumper cables, one side to the 12-volt battery and one side to the two 6-volt terminals, + & -
take the batt constant, and the acc. and connect them to the pos clip, and the neg. wire to the neg. clip
voltage meter.set to DC voltsBuy a cheap volt meter.
put a volt meter on the battery and check reading and see if it matches the metere in the car if over 15.0 volts, alternator is likely over charging
To measure electrical voltage accurately using a volt meter, first ensure the meter is set to the appropriate voltage range. Connect the red probe to the positive terminal and the black probe to the negative terminal of the circuit. Read the voltage displayed on the meter and record the measurement.
If you have 12 volt output on the engine it can be done. Hook the engine 12 volt output to the positive side of your meter and ground the other side back to the engine block. When you start the engine the meter will run and when you shut it down the meter stops. Many newer snow blowers that a 12 volt output for lighting whether lighting was put on the blower or not.
first we connect the 3 volt meter in three loads then we measure the voltage and find the resistance of the loads then put the formula p=v/r so in this method we get the power by using 3 volt meter ....(prashant)
To measure voltage be in parallel with the battery. Series would measure current. Parallel measures potential.
A volt can not be connected to a circuit.
you only need two 12 volt batteries to make 24 volt. connect them in series
