Laboratory Exercise Title : Familiarize with Electircal Measuring Instruments and Devices

1. Introduction: (Maximum of ten sentences in paragraph format. Indicate the source, i.e. wikipedia)

The Functional design and operation of electrical measuring instruments is very important, since
they are used in preparing, maintaining , and Troubleshooting electrical circuits.
Everything needs electricity to operate. However, we need to ensure whether everything is working
appropriately and accurately. This necessitates the importance of electrical measuring instruments.
