2. Four-terminal sensing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-terminal_sensing

   Four-point measurement of resistance between voltage sense connections 2 and 3. Current is supplied via force connections 1 and 4. In electrical engineering, four-terminal sensing (4T sensing), 4-wire sensing, or 4-point probes method is an electrical impedance measuring technique that uses separate pairs of current-carrying and voltage-sensing electrodes to make more accurate measurements ...

3. Contact resistance - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Contact_resistance

   That means that the contact resistance of the probes and their leads is inseparable from the resistance of the contact area to be measured, with which they are in series. In a four-terminal measurement, the current used to make the measurement is injected using a second, separate pair of leads, so the contact resistance of the measurement ...

4. Measurement category - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Measurement_category

   Measurement category III is for measurements performed in the building installation. Examples are measurements on distribution boards, circuit-breakers, wiring, including cables, bus-bars, junction boxes, switches, socket-outlets in the fixed installation, and equipment for industries. [2]

(Includes: DVM and VTVM) VU meter: Measures the level of AF signals in Volume units Cathode Ray Oscilloscope (CRO)

6. Sense (electronics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sense_(electronics)

   In electronics, sense is a technique used in power supplies to produce the correct voltage for a load.Although simple batteries naturally maintain a steady voltage (except in cases of large internal impedance), a power supply must use a feedback system to make adjustments based on the difference between its intended output and its actual output.

7. Continuity test - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continuity_test

   In electronics, a continuity test is the checking of an electric circuit to see if current flows (that it is in fact a complete circuit). A continuity test is performed by placing a small voltage (wired in series with an LED or noise-producing component such as a piezoelectric speaker) across the chosen path.

8. Four-wire circuit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Four-wire_circuit

   In telecommunications, a four-wire circuit is a two-way circuit using two paths so arranged that the respective signals are transmitted in one direction only by one path and in the other direction by the other path. The four-wire circuit gets its name from the fact that is uses four conductors to create two complete electrical circuits, one for ...

9. Electronic test equipment - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_test_equipment

   The following items are used for basic measurement of voltages, currents, and components in the circuit under test. Voltmeter (Measures voltage) Ohmmeter (Measures resistance) Ammeter, e.g. Galvanometer or Milliammeter (Measures current) Multimeter e.g., VOM (Volt-Ohm-Milliammeter) or DMM (Digital Multimeter) (Measures all of the above)
