Connect the Multimeter Probes 3. Read the Voltage Measuring the Short Circuit Current ... in both series and parallel. This allows you to adjust the total voltage and current of the circuit ...

whereas voltage and resistance measurements are done in parallel with the circuit. To measure DC current with a benchtop multimeter, select the “I DC” mode on the multimeter. Connect the posit ...

Today we’ll tell you how to use the multimeter to measure ... in parallel with the circuit or in series, and on the whole circuit or a portion of it. I’ll quickly explain the permutations for all ...

Measuring current is a simple task – all you need to do is hook up a multimeter to the circuit you want to measure and the meter gives you a clean value to use. Sometimes you can’t really ‘open up’ ...

For example, if you have a circuit with a voltage of 9 volts and a current of 3 amperes, the total resistance would be calculated as R = 9/3 = 3 ohms. A multimeter is a versatile instrument that can ...
