Multimeter Basics

What is the primary source of DC Voltage in everyday devices?

• Solar panels

• Alternators

• Batteries

• Wall sockets

What does DC Voltage stand for?

• Direct Current Voltage

• Dynamic Current Voltage

• Distributed Circuit Voltage

• Dual Circuit Voltage

What should you do if you're unsure about the amount of voltage to measure?

• Measure without setting

• Use the default setting

• Start with the highest setting and decrease

• Start with the lowest setting

Why is it important to know the ground side when measuring voltage?

• To decrease the resistance

• To prevent reversing the test leads

• It's not important

• To increase the voltage

When measuring AC Voltage, what symbol is used on the multimeter dial?

• A wave sign

• A circle

• A plus sign

• A straight line

What safety precaution should be taken when measuring high voltage?

• Wear gloves

• Use a wooden stick

• Measure in a wet area

• Keep the multimeter close to the body

What is the unit of measurement for resistance?

• Amps

• Volts

• Ohms

• Watts

What does a continuity test check for in an electric circuit?

• Voltage level

• Current flow

• Circuit completeness

• Resistance level

How can you measure the current with a multimeter?

• By keeping it near the circuit

• By placing it parallel to the circuit

• By touching the device's screen

• By placing it in series with the circuit

What happens if you measure more than 200 mA in the fused setting?

• Nothing special happens

• The multimeter will increase accuracy

• A fuse inside the multimeter will blow

• It will automatically switch to unfused setting
