ammeter
series
If you are asking how a voltmeter should be connected in a circuit, then the answer is that it should be connected in parallel with the device across which you want to determine the voltage. This applies whether the circuit is d.c. or a.c.
You almost NEVER do. 1) The circuit should be off and/or disconnected when using an ohmmeter. 2) It should be in parallel with the component as far as the rest of the circuit is concerned, but alone in series with the device its measuring.
Fuse is a circuit element which disconnects the electrical current from the mains"supply" feeding the load when a condition of fault "short circuit " occurs. one behaviour of electric current that it flows undivided in circuit elements connected in series and is divided when flows in circuit elements connected in parallel. so in order to protect a circuit fuse MUST be connected in series to cut/disconnect the faulty current in a safe/short time. if u connect a fuse in parallel to a component then u will be shorting that component and the component will not function ;because the fuse is a thin wire with a negligible resistance and electrical current flows in the most easy "less resistive" component. besides a short circuit will happen immediatly because u connectthe supply to the neutral! hope that helps.
no. you want to measure across the desired circuit segment. whether you are measuring voltage drop or current.
No, the hot wire should not be connected to the ground wire in an electrical circuit.
Ammeter is coneccted in series with circuit but Voltmeter is connected in parallel.
The ground wire should be connected to the grounding terminal or bus bar in the electrical circuit to provide a path for excess electrical current to safely flow to the earth.
series
Voltmeter should be connected always in parallel to a circuit ANSWER : IT should be in parallel except when used to measure current. Then it should be placed in series across a shunt.
When connected in series, multiple amp meters in the same circuit should read the same.

For a circuit breaker to protect anything, it must be wired in series with whatever it is protecting.
Because the ammeter connected in parallel will act as a short circuit.

When setting up an electrical circuit, it is recommended to connect the black wire first before connecting the red wire.
