 MULTIMETER

IN 1920 A BRITISH POST OFFICE DONALD MACADIS IS CREATED WITH INVENTING VERY FIRST
MULTIMETR
 FUNCTIONS OF MULTIMETER
MAIN FUNCTIONS OF MULTIMETES ARE
MEASURING OF VOLTAGE OF DIRECT CURRENT AND ALTERNATING CURRENT,
MEASURING OF DIRECT AND ALTERNATIG CURRENT,

MEASURING OF RESISTANCE, ELECTRICAL CAPACITANCE AND INDUCTANCE,

 TYPES OF MULTIMETER

DIGITAL MULTIMETER ANLOG MULTIMETER

DIGITAL MULTIMETER

DIGITAL MULTIMETER IS A TEST TOOL USED TO MEASURE TWO OR MORE ELECTRICAL VALUES—PRINCIPALLY
VOLTAGE (VOLTS), CURRENT (AMPS) AND RESISTANCE (OHMS). IT IS A STANDARD DIAGNOSTIC TOOL FOR
TECHNICIANS IN THE ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC INDUSTRIES.
DIGITAL MULTIMETERS LONG AGO REPLACED NEEDLE-BASED ANALOG METERS DUE TO THEIR ABILITY TO MEASURE
WITH GREATER ACCURACY, RELIABILITY AND INCREASED IMPEDANCE. FLUKE INTRODUCED ITS FIRST DIGITAL
MULTIMETER IN 1977.
 PARTS OF DIGITAL MULTIMETER

HE FACE OF A MULTIMETER TYPICALLY INCLUDES FOUR COMPONENTS:

DISPLAY: WHERE MEASUREMENT READOUTS CAN BE VIEWED.

BUTTONS: FOR SELECTING VARIOUS FUNCTIONS; THE OPTIONS VARY BY MODEL.

DIAL (OR ROTARY SWITCH): FOR SELECTING PRIMARY MEASUREMENT VALUES (VOLTS, AMPS, OHMS).

INPUT JACKS: WHERE TEST LEADS ARE INSERTED.

 CATEGORIE OF DIGITAL MULTIMETER

MULTIMETERS ARE CATEGORIZED BASED ON WHAT THEY ARE BEING USED FOR. THERE ARE A FEW
DIFFERENT CATEGORIES OF MULTIMETERS:
CAT I - FOR ELECTRONIC DEVICES THAT ARE NOT CONNECTED DIRECTLY TO THE BUILDING'S POWER
SUPPLY
CAT II - FOR APPLIANCES, PCS, AND TVS THAT ARE PLUGGED INTO THE THE BUILDING'S POWER
SUPPLY
CAT III - FOR MOTORS, LIGHTING SYSTEMS IN LARGE BUILDINGS, AND POWER DISTRIBUTION LINES
CAT IV - FOR THREE-PHASE CONNECTIONS BY ELECTRICITY PROVIDERS
FOR SAFETY REASONS, WE SHOULD BE CAREFUL TO USE THE CORRECT CATEGORY OF MULTIMETER
FOR THE JOB. THE HIGHER CATEGORY MULTIMETERS HAVE HIGH-ENERGY FUSES THAT WILL PROTECT
DEVICES CONNECTED TO HIGH-VOLTAGE INPUT SOURCES. THESE FUSES PREVENT THE HIGH
VOLTAGE FROM PASSING TO THE TESTED DEVICES AND BURNING THEM
 FUNCTIONS

USING A TYPICAL MULTIMETER, WE CAN MEASURE:

VOLTAGE IN ALTERNATING CURRENT (AC) AND DIRECT CURRENT (DC) CIRCUITS
CURRENT IN ALTERNATING CURRENT (AC) AND DIRECT CURRENT (DC) CIRCUITS
RESISTANCE OF THE ENTIRE CIRCUIT OR ACROSS INDIVIDUAL CIRCUIT COMPONENTS
SOME DIGITAL MULTIMETERS CAN TEST RESISTANCE UP TO 50 OHMS WITH ONE MILLIOHM (0.001
OHM) RESOLUTION. OTHERS CAN BE USED TO TEST A DIODE OR MEASURE TRANSISTOR GAIN. THERE
ARE EVEN MULTIMETERS THAT CAN RECORD MINIMUM AND MAXIMUM VALUES AND SAVE THE DATA
THROUGH WIRELESS INTERNET.
