Measure battery current?

To measure battery current, you can use a multimeter set to measure current in series with the battery. Connect the multimeter in series between the battery and the load to measure the current flowing from the battery to the load. Make sure to select the appropriate current range on the multimeter to avoid damaging the instrument.


How many watt in 13 Amper 3 pin multi socket?

To calculate the wattage of a 13-amp 3-pin multi-socket, you can use the formula: Watts = Volts × Amps. In the UK, standard voltage is typically 230 volts. Therefore, a 13-amp socket can handle up to 2990 watts (230 volts × 13 amps).


How much amper will be given from a battery of 4600 mah in second?

The rating of "4600 mAh" is one description of the battery's capacity. It doesn't tell you anything about the delivery or discharge rate of the battery. Those depend on the external circuit that you have connected to the battery. For example, if nothing is connected to the battery's terminaks, then the battery is giving zero amperes.


How do you check to see if a breaker is bad?

Answer for USA, Canada and countries running a 60 Hz supply service.A circuit breaker can be tested by overloading it. If it is a 15 amp breaker that you are suspicious of, it can be loaded quite easily. You will need a total load of 2000 watts. This test is not applicable to kitchen counter receptacles as they are split receptacles and can handle 1800 watts on both the top and bottom of the duplex receptacle. Make sure you have two appliances for the test. A kettle and a toaster will do very nicely. Plug them both into the same receptacle. After about 30 to 45 seconds the breaker should trip if it is working properly. If the breaker has not tripped after one minute disconnect the appliances from the receptacle. This breaker should be changed out. Remember the higher the breaker amperage the higher the trip wattage on the circuit will be. To check any breakers higher that 15 amps, be safe and get an electrician to do it for you.As always, if you are in doubt about what to do, the best advice anyone should give you is to call a licensed electrician to advise what work is needed.Before you do any work yourself,on electrical circuits, equipment or appliancesalways use a test meter to ensure the circuit is, in fact, de-energized.IF YOU ARE NOT ALREADY SURE YOU CAN DO THIS JOBSAFELY AND COMPETENTLYREFER THIS WORK TO QUALIFIED PROFESSIONALS.
