Why do you call a ammeter a tell tale?
An a ammeter is called a tell tale because it directly shows discrepancies between calculated amps and actual amps. This is used to troubleshoot a problem without having to tear apart an entire circuit.
How do you measure the value of the amplitude of an electric current?
The value of the amplitude of an electric current is measured in amperes (A) using a tool called an ammeter. The ammeter is connected in series with the circuit to measure the flow of current. The reading on the ammeter displays the amplitude value of the current.
What is an ideal ammeter?
An ideal ammeter is a device that measures electric current and has zero resistance, producing no voltage drop when connected in a circuit. This ensures that the current being measured is not affected by the presence of the ammeter itself, providing an accurate reading of the current flowing through the circuit.
What instrument can be used to detect electron flow?
An ammeter is commonly used to detect electron flow in a circuit. The ammeter measures the amount of current (flow of electrons) passing through a specific point in the circuit.
A calibrated instrument that measures the amount of current present is?
an 'ammeter'

Why is an ammeter also called a tell tale?
There are some applications where using an ammeter is the only way to troubleshoot a problem without tearing apart the entire circuit. It is the only meter setting on the DMM used while the circuit is energized. After calculating the amperage that should flow through the circuit by measuring ohms and volts, an ammeter directly shows any "tell tale" discrepancies between calculated amps and actual amps. Example: In theatre lighting, a volt meter reads 110V on a power circuit, and an ohmmeter reads close to 0 when measuring across a lamp's power connector leads; yet, when connected, the lamp won't light and the breaker doesn't trip. In theory, 110V across a lamp reading 0 ohms should light the lamp. A quick bit of minor surgury and a measure with the ammeter "tells the tale" that very little current is flowing; therefore, one of the digital dimmer packs has probably gone bad -- it will provide a phantom power of 110V with little current. Without the ammeter, one would have to waste time troubleshooting the dimmer itself.

When was The Tell-Tale Heart created?
The Tell-Tale Heart was created in 1843-01.
What is a galvanometer called when calibrated to read current?
A galvanometer calibrated to read current is called an ammeter. It is used to measure the flow of electric current in a circuit.
When was The Tell Tale Wire created?
The Tell Tale Wire was created on 1919-10-18.
When was The Tell-Tale Message created?
The Tell-Tale Message was created on 1912-11-20.
Why is ammeter connected in series with the load?
An ammeter is connected in series with the load to measure the current flowing through the load. By placing the ammeter in series, it becomes a part of the circuit path so that all the current flowing through the load also passes through the ammeter, allowing for an accurate measurement of the current.
