Using multimeter VOM as voltmeter for ACV test

The Ac voltmeter is used to measure alternative current voltage or electrical pressure of a circuit. This instrument is connected across the circuit and it does not require correct application of the polarity . The unit of measure is volt(V). Note;  If the voltage range is unknown get the estimate value by setting the knob at the top level or should be   at 1000 V before measuring...

Using multimeter VOM as Ammeter

The DC ammeter- is used to measure the direct current of a circuit. The unit of measure is ampere (A). An multimeter can be used as ammeter by connecting it in series with the circuit. It requires correct application and polarity to measure the current. Procedure: 1. Check the pointer of the meter if it set to zero 2. Set the knob at DC and set it to the desired ampere range.There are different...
