An ammeter is an instrument used to measure electric current in a circuit, typically expressed in amperes (A). It is connected in series with the circuit component whose current you want to measure, allowing it to accurately gauge the flow of electrons. Ammeters can be analog or digital, with digital ammeters often providing more precise readings. Proper usage involves ensuring the ammeter is rated for the expected current to avoid damage.
What else can I help you with?
What instrument measures amps of currrent?
ammeter
What is the 'job' of an ammeter in a circuit?
It measures the current.
How do you measure voltage using a ammeter?
An ammeter measures amperage not voltage.
What are the readings for the experiment - to convert a galvanometer int ammeter?
A galvanometer is a type of ammeter an instrument for detecting and measuring electric current. A galvanometer can be converted into ammeter by connecting resistance in parallel with it.
What is the Purpose of shunt in ammeter?
The purpose of a shunt in an ammeter is to allow the measurement of large currents without damaging the instrument. It does this by providing a low-resistance path for most of the current to flow through, while directing only a small, measurable fraction of that current through the ammeter itself. This enables the ammeter to accurately display high currents while protecting its internal components. By using a shunt, the design of the ammeter can remain compact and sensitive, suitable for a wider range of applications.
What is the calibration of an ammeter?
calibration of an ammeter is done in order to standardise the instrument,and rectify the errors present in the instrument, if any.

Is starting current of a AC Motor measured as RMS or PEAK?
IT DEPENDS WHAT MEASURING INSTRUMENT YOU ARE USING. RMS - IF USING THE CLAMP AMMETER OR PANEL METER OSCILLOSCOPE - BOTH CAN BE READ
How do you measure voltage using a ammeter?
An ammeter measures amperage not voltage.
