Loading refers to the phenomena that occurs when a load circuit having low effective impedance is connected to a supply circuit having higher effective impedance.

What is loading affect of multimeter?

'Loading effect' applies to voltmeters, or to multimeters when set to measure voltage. It describes the change in a circuit's resistance when the resistance of the voltmeter is taken into account. It's effect is to cause the resulting measuredvoltage to be different from the actual voltage which would appear without the voltmeter connected. The loading effect is minimised by ensuring that the internal resistance of the voltmeter is significantly higher than the resistance of that part of the circuit to which it is connected. For general voltage measurement, this is usually the case anyway, but when measuring circuits which, themselves, have very high resistance care must be taken over the choice of voltmeter to be used.


Voltmeter DMM or VOM has the higher loading effect?

The VOM has the higher loading effect, because it has a lower impedance. It is typical for a VOM to have an impedance of 20K ohms per volt while the DMM has a fixed impedance of 10M ohms or 20M ohms.


Why do you get different results when calculating the voltage drop across a resistor and ignoring resistance of a voltmeter and when considering it?

Voltage drop is the product of current and resistance. When you connect a voltmeter across a resistor, you are connecting that voltmeter's internal resistance in parallel with that resistor. The resulting resistance of this parallel combination is lowerthan that of the resistor. As a result the voltage drop (current times this lower resistance) will be lower than it would be without the voltmeter connected. This is called the 'loading effect' of that voltmeter.The higher the internal resistance of the voltmeter, the less effect it will have on lowering the overall resistance when connected across a resistor. This is why the internal resistance of a voltmeter is made deliberately very high. Under most circumstances, therefore, a conventional voltmeter will have very little effect on the resistance of the circuit being tested and, so, it will have no significant effect on the voltage appearing across the resistor.However... for circuits that already have exceptionally-high resistance values, you must be careful when you select a voltmeter as you must take into account its internal resistance and ensure the voltmeter you use has the very highest internal resistance available. This is because the loading effect increases with circuits that have a high resistance. That might involve selecting a voltmeter that works on a completely-different principle , such as an electrostatic voltmeter or, perhaps, an oscilloscope


What instrument measures a circuit that is sensitive to loading?

A high-impedance voltmeter is most appropriate.


How can loading effect affect voltage measurement in a circuit?

Suppose you have two 100 kilo Ohm resistors in series across a 12 volt supply.The expected and actual voltage at their junction is 6 volts. Now measure the voltage across one resistor with a Voltmeter. The instrument must take a little power to move the meter needle or be taken by the digital circuitry. If the input resistance of the voltmeter is 100 Kilo Ohms then it will make that resistor under test appear to be 50 Kilo Ohms. The voltage across the resistor drops to 4 Volts. This is the loading effect of the voltmeter.


How does the loading effect of an ammeter in a low resistance circuit compare to the loading effect in a high resistance circuit?

The voltmeter has an internal resistance, which should be as high as possible. As this resistance draws current from the circuit under test, it will affect circuit operation. This is more pronounced in a high impedance circuit because the current drawn flows through higher resistances.


How do design a high voltage voltmeter?

Use a voltage divider and an standard high input impedance voltmeter connected to the low voltage output tap of the divider. Just check that: a) the voltage divider has enough resistance to minimize loading of the voltage source (The voltage divider resistance should be as high as possible). b) the voltmeter's input impedance is at least 10-20 times larger than the output resistance (impedance) of the divider. If necessary add a high-input impedance amplifier or a transducer between the divider output and the voltmeter. What is high voltage for you?
