In Digital multimeter we use 9V Dc battery.
Either the supply or the multimeter is faulty.
A volt meter or a multimeter on the voltage scale.
A multimeter measures current in amperes and potential difference in volts. Wattmeters are used to measure watts and the reading is a combination of current being drawn and the voltage applied. watt = volts x amps
14 volts
one But if you going to sit there with a multimeter to see what one or 1000 will be for a shock to your system, i recommend you build another project.
It should not be over 70% capacity (12.32 volts on the multimeter).
They allow the user to test: Volts (AC and DC), Amps, Ohms and basic continuity.
With everything (all electrical items) turned off, your alt. should be producing 13.2 to 14.6 volts. You can test this with a multimeter by putting the red tester on the big terminal on the back of the alt. and the black tester on the negative battery post. make sure the multimeter is set to DC current.
With the meter on the voltage scale you will read zero volts across the blown fuse. From the bottom terminal of the service switch fuse to ground you will read zero volts and from the top terminal of the service switch fuse to ground you will read 120 volts. The multimeter will read 0
The highest voltage scale on a hand held multimeter is 5000 volts.
"ungrounded" = floating.
EMF (Volts) Resistance (Ohms), and most of the time, Current (Amperes, or more likely, mili Amperes)
