An ohmmeter is an electrical instrument that measures electrical resistance, but instead of hairsprings to supply a restoring force they used conducting of the first pair of leads and their contact resistances is ignored by the meter.

Why not use an ohm meter to measure the leakage in wire insulation?

An ohm meter measures resistance in a circuit, not leakage in wire insulation. To measure insulation resistance or leakage in wire insulation, you would typically use a megohmmeter or insulation resistance tester, which applies a higher voltage than an ohm meter to test the integrity of the insulation.


How do you calculate resistance of 1 meter cable?

You could use a very sensitive Ohm Meter or you could get a longer piece, such as 100 m, measure with an Ohm Meter and divide by 100. The problem is that the resistance of 1 meter length will be very low and it would be hard to get a reading other than zero from most Ohm Meters.
