The Voltmeter is used to measure the electrical potential difference between two points...
so it's no use to connect it in Series , because the electrical potential difference between two points at the same line is zero ==> the readings will always be zero.
The Ammeter is used to measure the electric current in a circuit...
so it's no use to connect it in Parallel , because you want to know the current flowing in this wire.
note
the internal Resistance of the Ammeter is very little
and very high for the Voltmeter --> so they will not affect the circuit.
What else can I help you with?
Why do you have specific resistance combination inside a voltmeter and an ammeter Explain?
in voltmeter we have internal Resistance and connected in series , to current don't transfer in voltmeter , and we have internal resistance in ammeter and connected in parallel , to most current transfer through the ammeter.
How is ammeter and voltmeter attached to a circuit?
Ammeters are connected in series with the load under test. This requires the load be disconnected from the source, and the ammeter placed in circuit. Voltmeters are connected in parallel with the load under test. This does not require any circuit changes. Sorry, but WikiAnswers does not support illustrations.
Where must a voltmeter be placed in a circuit?
One does NOT insert a voltmeter in a series cirtcuit...an ammeter can be inserted in series, though. A voltmeter is connected in parallel with the source voltage and low(ground) side.
Which circuit the ammeter connected in parallel?
An ammeter is always connected in series and a vlotmeter in parallel
High resistance in parallel connected with galvanometer to form voltmeter?
That won't work. To convert an ammeter (a galvanometer is a very sensitive type of ammeter) you connect a high value resistor in series with it.
How should a ammeter and voltmeter be connected in circuit?
Ammeter is coneccted in series with circuit but Voltmeter is connected in parallel.
Voltmeter in series?
No. Voltmeter in parallel. Ammeter in series.

The rules of connecting voltmeter and ammeters in the circuit?
Connect ammeter in series and voltmeter in parallel to the circuit
How do you connect an ammeter and voltmeter?
To connect an ammeter, you must place it in series with the circuit so that the current flows through the ammeter. To connect a voltmeter, you must place it in parallel with the component you are measuring the voltage across. Make sure to set the ammeter and voltmeter to the proper range before connecting them.
Is a ammeter connected in series or in parallel with the circuit under test?
An ammeter is connected in series. A voltmeter is connected in parallel. ammeter should always be connected in series instead of parallel becoz it is a low resistance device and we know that resistance is inversly proportional to current so more current will pass through it and if it is connected in parallel than it may get damaged
How is voltmeter connected to ammeter?
in series
How is ammeter and voltmeter attached to a circuit?

What happens if an ammeter is connected in parallel and voltmeter connected in series in a circuit?
The voltmeter will register the volts, the ammeter will either explode or blow a fuse since it has a very low resistance and is designed to be used in series to measure the current flowing through it.
How can you say that ammeter measures current and voltmeter measures voltage?
voltmeter in parallel and ammeter in series of a circuit.

Is a voltmeter connected in series or parallel in an electrical circuit?
A voltmeter is connected in parallel in an electrical circuit.
