generally voltmeters are connected in parallel in the circuit.If the voltmeter resistance is lower as it increases the current rating,because by connecting parallel we are decreasing the resistance,so if the voltmeter resistance is not too much higher it leads to burning of the meter,For that we can conclude that the in ideal the voltmeter has infinite resistance.

Convortion of moving coil galvanometrr into voltmeter?
A galvanometer can be converted into a voltmeter by connecting it with very high resistance.
Will an open switch record a resistance of zero ohms?
no...... ideal open switch should have a resistance of infinity... the question should be a closed switch http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Will_an_open_switch_record_a_resistance_of_zero_ohms" but this is also false because any good conductor will have a small resistance the connecting wire resistance is exhibitted across the terminals of the switch
What are the parts of an analog voltmeter and its functions?
An analog voltmeter measure voltage and resistance along with the current. The parts include a needle, a spring, resistors, and a way to control it. That would be a knob or rheostat.
Why does the voltmeter input have a much higher resistance than the current input?
Anything that a voltmeter is measuring has some internal output impedance. If the voltmeter had a low input impedance, these two impedances would form a voltage divider and reduce the voltage measured. The voltmeter has a high input impedance so that it does not affect ("load down") the thing it is measuring.
What does a voltmeter measure voltage in?
A voltmeter measures voltage in volts.
What should be the resistance of an ideal voltmeter?
infinity- so that all the voltage is measured across the component instead of losing some in voltometer circuitry
Why an ideal voltimer must infinity resistor?
An ideal voltmeter must have infinite resistance to prevent it from drawing any current from the circuit it is measuring. If it had finite resistance, it would alter the voltage across the component being measured, leading to inaccurate readings. By having infinite resistance, the voltmeter ensures that it does not influence the circuit, allowing for precise voltage measurements.
What is the resistance of an ideal oscilloscope probe?
The resistance of an ideal oscilloscope probe is infinity.
Ideal universal high resistance voltmeter?
The ideal, or theoretical, voltmeter has infinite resistance, which means that, at any measured voltage, there is no current through the voltmeter. In the practical world, this is impossible, but there are high resistance voltmeters that minimize the error introduced by drawing a current from a circuit. A typical digital voltmeter has 10 to 20 megohms of resistance, and there are high performance versions that can have thousands of megohms of resistance, or more.
What is the ideal voltmeter high or low?
Ideal Voltmeter has an infinite resistance so it won't draw current from the circuit, but in real life ideal voltmeter doesn't exist.
What is the ideal insulation resistance to earth for a single phase and three phase motor?
Infinity
How is resistivity connected to resistance?
Resistance is connected in parallel with voltmeter or say, voltmeter is connected in parallel with resistance.
Why there is an extension range of voltmeter when a series resistance not equal to voltmeter is used?
why is extention
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.
Why do you get different results when calculating the voltage drop across a resistor and ignoring resistance of a voltmeter and when considering it?
Voltage drop is the product of current and resistance. When you connect a voltmeter across a resistor, you are connecting that voltmeter's internal resistance in parallel with that resistor. The resulting resistance of this parallel combination is lowerthan that of the resistor. As a result the voltage drop (current times this lower resistance) will be lower than it would be without the voltmeter connected. This is called the 'loading effect' of that voltmeter.The higher the internal resistance of the voltmeter, the less effect it will have on lowering the overall resistance when connected across a resistor. This is why the internal resistance of a voltmeter is made deliberately very high. Under most circumstances, therefore, a conventional voltmeter will have very little effect on the resistance of the circuit being tested and, so, it will have no significant effect on the voltage appearing across the resistor.However... for circuits that already have exceptionally-high resistance values, you must be careful when you select a voltmeter as you must take into account its internal resistance and ensure the voltmeter you use has the very highest internal resistance available. This is because the loading effect increases with circuits that have a high resistance. That might involve selecting a voltmeter that works on a completely-different principle , such as an electrostatic voltmeter or, perhaps, an oscilloscope
What is the use of universal high resistance voltmeter?
A voltmeter must have a very high resistance to measure voltage. A voltmeter is placed in parallel with the element that you are measuring. If the voltmeter has a low internal resistance, then all of the current will flow through the voltmeter instead of the element. You want all of the current to flow through the element, to get an accurate reading of the voltage. Conversely, an ampmeter must have zero resistance, because it is placed in series with the element.
What will happen if a voltmeter has a low shunt resistance instead of having high shunt resistance?
The purpose of a voltmeter is to indicate the potential difference between two points in a circuit.When a voltmeter is connected across a circuit, it shunts the circuit. If the voltmeter has a low resistance,it will draw a substantial amount of current. This action lowers the effective resistance of the circuit andchanges the voltage reading.
