Using an ohmmeter the reading on a good 5 A fuse should be?
Using an ohmmeter, a good 5 A fuse should show a reading of 0 ohms, indicating it is a closed circuit with no resistance. If the fuse is blown, the reading would show an open circuit, often indicated by an infinite resistance or "OL" (over limit) on the meter display. Always ensure the fuse is disconnected from the circuit before testing to avoid inaccurate readings.
Should the ohmmeter be connected to the circuit while the power is being applied or only when the circuit is turned off?
Turn off the supply before using the ohmmeter,it will damaged your ohmmeter when supply is present.

Why should an ohmmeter never be used on an energized circuit?
Because an ohmmeter works by putting a potential difference (voltage) across a load and measuring the resulting current (the current will be inversely proportionate to the resistance). In a live circuit there is already current flowing through the load so (at best) the reading will be inaccurate, at worst the meter will be damaged.
How perform continuty test in electrical circute?
A continuity test is a simple test, used to determine whether there is a break in a circuit. This can be done, for example, using an ohmmeter which passes current through the circuit from its internal battery -a deflection (analogue meter) or a '000' reading (digital meter) indicates that there is continuity. A continuity test MUST NOT be performed on an energised circuit, as this will likely damage the ohmmeter and present a shock hazard to the user.
A zero reading on an ohmmeter means the circuit or component is open is this true or false?
This is false. A zero reading is what you get when you press the probes of themeter together with nothing between them, to make sure the meter is working.That's about as closed as the circuit under test can get.
Does an Ohmeter that has an infinite reading indicates an open circuit?
Yes, an infinite reading on an Ohmmeter usually indicates an open circuit. This means that there is a break in the circuit, preventing the flow of current and resulting in the high resistance reading.
What if a ohmmeter reads infinity?
You have an open circuit.
Using an ohmmeter the reading on a good 5 A fuse should be?

Always ensure the fuse is disconnected from the circuit before testing to avoid inaccurate readings.
What is infinity on a multimeter?
If is being used as an ohmmeter it usually means an open circuit. A switch may be open, or a wire is broken (not a short circuit)
How much current flows in a circuit with an open circuit?
None.AnswerIt depends! A capacitor is an open circuit, yet a.c. current flows quite readily. And d.c. current will flow for a very short period of time.
What happen ohmmeter hook up to a live circuit?
Depending on the voltage, make sure to be safe, but I don't think that it is too bad, although it does depend on the circuit
What is the configuration of the ohmmeter?
An ohmmeter is connected in parallel to a resistor. Be sure that there is no power in the circuit when testing.
Should the ohmmeter be connected to the circuit while the power is being applied or only when the circuit is turned off?
Turn off the supply before using the ohmmeter,it will damaged your ohmmeter when supply is present.
What meter must NEVER be connected to a circuit when the circuit power is turned on?
An Ohmmeter.

When using an ohmmeter what should be the results for an NPN transistor?
When the positive lead is at point "P" which is the base and the negative lead is at either of points "N" which is either the emitter or the collector, then the ohmmeter should have a very low reading or reads short circuit. Also, when the negative lead is at point "P" and the positive lead is at either points "N", then the ohmmeter should have an infinite reading when the meg ohm range.
