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.

Use a multimeter and test if there is a voltage drop or current over the wire circuit.
It depends on which country you live in as to where you apply; in the United States you should look into the Department of Housing and Urban Development.
Firstly turn of the power before this test...Using a resistance or continuity tester you should get the following results:Short circuit: Very low resistance (nearly 0 ohms) or the bell will ring.Open circuit: Very high resistance (Somewhere in the range of Mega ohms) or the bell will not ring.The reason for this is because and open circuit has a gap in it (which has high resistance).The short circuit has wires that are crossed and so has a really low resistance.
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

No, the circuit should not be energized when checking the resistance of a circuit.

A safety obeserver who has a wooden object to pull you from the live circuit. They must be trained in CPR and know where the circuit breakers are to deactivate the dangerous circuit in case of a mishap.
Not touching a live conductive part of a circuit is a great way to prevent you from receiving an electrical shock! Along with this the circuit breaker should trip if there is a fault on the circuit, or a GFCI if there is no ground in the circuit
You should call your local housing authority to apply for section 8.
The wire that connects the power source to the rest of the circuit should contain the fuse. This is typically the wire that leads directly from the positive terminal of the battery or power source. Placing the fuse in this wire helps protect the circuit in case of a short circuit or overload.
Yes people who are pregnant should apply especially if your family not helping and you still live with your family
to make sure the protection device such as fuse are connected at the live part
to prevent live conduit in case of short circuit
Where I live: YES Where you live, you should ask again and tell us where you live.
