Best Answer

Besides not dropping it, you prevent damage to a multimeter by never connecting it to a circuit that it is not intended to measure. Two examples... If you are in a 0.6 milliamp range you would not want to connect the meter to a 6,000 volt focus pin in a television set. If you are in ohms mode, you would not want to connect the meter to a circuit that has voltage present.

The purpose of a fuse in a multimeter is to protect the instrument and the user from excessive current. If too much current flows through the multimeter, the fuse blows, breaking the circuit and preventing damage to the multimeter or potential harm to the user. This helps ensure the safe and accurate operation of the multimeter.


How do you use analogue multimeter?

Set the Multilemeter to the correct scale for the Electronic application that you are working with. Make certain that the leads are in the correct recievers in the multimeter. The leads are color coded red and black for positive and negative. Take a reading and see how it compares to a normal reading. If you are working on sensors on a modern (computerized) car you can not use an analog multileter as the sensors can be damaged. Always use a digital multimeter that is 10 megohm impedance protected.
