  2. Electronic symbol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_symbol

    Wire crossover symbols for circuit diagrams. The CAD symbol for insulated crossing wires is the same as the older, non-CAD symbol for non-insulated crossing wires. To avoid confusion, the wire "jump" (semi-circle) symbol for insulated wires in non-CAD schematics is recommended (as opposed to using the CAD-style symbol for no connection), so as to avoid confusion with the original, older style ...

  3. Ohm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ohm

    One of the functions of many types of multimeters is the measurement of resistance in ohms.. The ohm is defined as an electrical resistance between two points of a conductor when a constant potential difference of one volt (V), applied to these points, produces in the conductor a current of one ampere (A), the conductor not being the seat of any electromotive force.

  4. Electrical resistivity and conductivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_resistivity_and...

    In some applications where the weight of an item is very important, the product of resistivity and density is more important than absolute low resistivity – it is often possible to make the conductor thicker to make up for a higher resistivity; and then a low-resistivity-density-product material (or equivalently a high conductivity-to-density ...

  6. Resistor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resistor

    The ohm (symbol: Ω) is the SI unit of electrical resistance, named after Georg Simon Ohm. An ohm is equivalent to a volt per ampere . Since resistors are specified and manufactured over a very large range of values, the derived units of milliohm (1 mΩ = 10 −3 Ω), kilohm (1 kΩ = 10 3 Ω), and megohm (1 MΩ = 10 6 Ω) are also in common usage.

  7. Ohmmeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ohmmeter

    An analog ohmmeter. An ohmmeter is an electrical instrument that measures electrical resistance (the opposition offered by a circuit or component to the flow of electric current). Multimeters also function as ohmmeters when in resistance-measuring mode. An ohmmeter applies current to the circuit or component whose resistance is to be measured.

  9. Multimeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multimeter

    A multimeter (also known as a volt-ohm-milliammeter, volt-ohmmeter or VOM) [1] is a measuring instrument that can measure multiple electrical properties. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] A typical multimeter can measure voltage , resistance , and current , [ 4 ] in which case can be used as a voltmeter , ohmmeter , and ammeter .
