A voltmeter is an instrument used for measuring electric potential difference between two points in an electric circuit. It is connected in parallel . It usually has a high resistance so that it takes negligible current from the circuit.
Multimeter: General purpose instrument measures voltage, current and resistance (and sometimes other quantities as well) Network analyzer: Measures network parameters Ohmmeter: Measures the resistance of a component Oscilloscope: Displays waveform of a signal, allows measurement of frequency, timing, peak excursion, offset, ...

Analog multimeter Digital 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.
An electrostatic voltmeter uses the attraction force between two charged surfaces to create a deflection of a pointer directly calibrated in volts. Since the attraction force is the same regardless of the polarity of the charged surfaces (as long as the charge is opposite), the electrostatic voltmeter can measure DC voltages of either polarity.
One side of the NFL playoff picture could be close to its final form in Week 17, as the last berths in the NFC could be clinched on Sunday.
Donald Trump mocked Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau after his top minister’s surprise resignation following a clash on how to handle the president-elect’s looming tariffs.
Conference championship weekend is upon us. Thanks to the dissolution of the Pac-12, we're down to nine conference championship games this weekend.
A multimeter can be used to measure the voltage between two positions. 1.5 V C-cell batteries. The voltage produced by each electrochemical cell in a battery is determined by the chemistry of that cell (see Galvanic cell § Cell voltage). Cells can be combined in series for multiples of that voltage, or additional circuitry added to adjust the ...
