    Best practices • Don't enable the "use less secure apps" feature. • Don't reply to any SMS request asking for a verification code. • Don't respond to unsolicited emails or requests to send money.

  3. Multimeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multimeter

    A multimeter can use many different test probes to connect to the circuit or device under test. Crocodile clips, retractable hook clips, and pointed probes are the three most common types. Tweezer probes are used for closely spaced test points, as for instance surface-mount devices. The connectors are attached to flexible, well insulated leads ...

    While most junk email can seem like a minor annoyance, certain types of email can cause problems for not only you but other people you email. Sometimes these emails can contain dangerous viruses or malware that can infect your computer by downloading attached software, screensavers, photos, or offers for free products.

  5. Ohmmeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ohmmeter

    Insulation testers that relied on a hand cranked generator operated on the same principle. This ensured that the indication was wholly independent of the voltage actually produced. Subsequent designs of ohmmeter provided a small battery to apply a voltage to a resistance via a galvanometer to measure the current through the resistance (battery ...

  6. Electrical isolation test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_isolation_test

    A minimum acceptable resistance value is usually specified (typically in the mega ohm (MΩ) range per circuit tested). Multiple circuits having a common return may be tested simultaneously, provided the minimum allowable resistance value is based on the number of circuits in parallel. Five basic isolation test configurations exist: [3]

  7. Technical support scam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technical_support_scam

    Technical support scams rely on social engineering to persuade victims that their device is infected with malware. [15] [16] Scammers use a variety of confidence tricks to persuade the victim to install remote desktop software, with which the scammer can then take control of the victim's computer.

  8. Avometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avometer

    The original AVOmeter was designed to measure direct current (3 ranges, 0.12, 1.2 & 12 A), direct voltage (3 ranges, 12, 120 & 600 V) and resistance (single range, 0 - 10,000 ohms, 225 ohms mid-scale). All ranges could be selected by a single rotary switch which set both the function and the range value.

  9. Megohmmeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megohmmeter

    Megohmmeter M1101M. A Megohmmeter or insulation resistance tester, is a special type of ohmmeter used to measure the electrical resistance of insulators. [1] Insulating components, for example cable jackets, must be tested for their insulation strength at the time of commissioning and as part of maintenance of high voltage electrical equipment and installations.
