Meters

The function used to measure resistance on a meter is?

• Volts.

• Amps.

• MFD

• Ohms.

Common uses of the ohm function on the meter are?

• Continuity check.

• Resistance check.

• Short check.

• All the above.

Before checking resistance you should?

• Make sure there is no parallel path.

• Make sure the power is removed.

• Use the ohms function on the meter.

• All the above.

To measure current with your meter you should?

• Select volts and clamp around 2 wires going to the load.

• Select volts and clamp around 1 wire going to the load.

• Select ohms and clamp around 1 wire going to the load.

• Select Amps and clamp around 1 wire going to the load.

If the meter reads OL when checking for continuity the circuit is closed.

• True.

• False.

A resistance reading of 0 ohms indicates a closed circuit.

• True

• False

To measure resistance the meter should be set to?
