Q: How to test ohm's law in a circuit?

Test OHM ’s Law (V = IR) by verifying that the current increases linearly with applied voltage. Ap- ply 1 V, 2 V, 3 V, and 4 V to the circuit. Measure current and voltage and record them in the table provided. Include units and uncertainty.

Q: Do you turn off the ohmmeter when you are done using it?

Turn the OHM meter off when you’re done using it. Occasionally the test leads will become shorted while the device is stored, draining the battery. The best way to prevent this is turn off the OHM meter and disconnect the wires before you store it.

Q: How big of a battery do you need for an ohmmeter?

If you just bought an OHM meter, the battery may have come pre-installed in your unit, or packaged separately with instructions for installing it. You’ll need to do this whether your OHM meter is digital or analog. Analog OHM meters are very basic and inexpensive and usually range from 0-10 to 0-10,000 OHM s.

Question 1

How to test ohm's law in a circuit?

Accepted Answer

Test OHM’s Law (V = IR) by verifying that the current increases linearly with applied voltage. Ap- ply 1 V, 2 V, 3 V, and 4 V to the circuit. Measure current and voltage and record them in the table provided. Include units and uncertainty.

Question 2

What should the resistance of an ohmmeter be?

Accepted Answer

For example, if you expect the circuit you’re measuring to have a resistance of 1100 OHMs, then your OHMmeter should be set to X100. This means, a reading of “11” on your OHMmeter would be equal to 1100 OHMs. Note that you can only do this if you have an idea of what the resistance of what you’re measuring ought to be.

Question 3

Do you turn off the ohmmeter when you are done using it?

Accepted Answer

Turn the OHMmeter off when you’re done using it. Occasionally the test leads will become shorted while the device is stored, draining the battery. The best way to prevent this is turn off the OHMmeter and disconnect the wires before you store it.

Question 5

Where are the fuses on a Simpson 260-8 ohm milliammeter?

Accepted Answer

The 260-8 has an "Off" position where the 260-P has the continuity buzzer located. Two fuses are used in this model and are located between the batteries. The 2 Amp and 1 Amp fuses are under the silver plate which rotates to allow removal.

Question 6

What is the series number on the Simpson 260-8?

Accepted Answer

The Simpson 260-8 has Taut Band Suspension and a mirrored dial to eliminate parallax errors. The mirrored scale is standard on the Series 8, note there is no "M" in the series number. and a 12 position Function / Range selector switch.

Question 7

What's the voltage drop on an ohm milliammeter?

Accepted Answer

Rated Circuit-To-Ground Voltage 1000V (AC or DC) max. Voltage Drop: (Nominal) 250mV on 50μA , 1mA; 255mV on 10mA , 10A; 300mV on 100mA, 500mV on 500mA
