Ideally, it should be zero, so the lower it is, the better.
An ammeter is connected in series with other things, so that the current it measures
has to go through the meter. If it has any resistance, then just connecting it in the circuit
changes the current. So you want your meter to have as small a resistance as possible.
a series resistence with its coil
ideal ammeter has zero internal resistance
in voltmeter we have internal Resistance and connected in series , to current don't transfer in voltmeter , and we have internal resistance in ammeter and connected in parallel , to most current transfer through the ammeter.
ammeter connected sereal. internal resestance very low volt meter connected parrel. high internal resestance.
ammeter connect in series in circuit to measure the current, if the Ammeter have a high resistance it would effect the voltage value because there will be a drop voltage over the internal resistance of the Ammeter, so we desgin the ammeters with very low resistance...
0. An ammeter is placed in series with the circuit in question; if its' internal resistance is high, it will change the current flow, thus making the measurement meaningless. For the same reason an ideal voltage meter will have infinite resistance.
The disadvantage of using a voltmeter and ammeter on circuit measurements is that internal burden in both these instruments can affect circuit operation so much as to make a measurement useless.
WIIL was created in 2007.
An ammeter has to measure to current flowing through the circuit. Resistance offers an obstruction to the current flow. So, if the resistance of an ammeter is large , the current measured by the ammeter will be quite less as compared to the actual amount of current flowing through the circuit which is undesirable. If ammeter has zero resistance , then it will give the exact value of current. But this is not practically possible because every material has some value of internal resistance which we can't control. For this reason , ammeter must have small resistance
The purpose of a shunt in an ammeter is to allow the measurement of large currents without damaging the instrument. It does this by providing a low-resistance path for most of the current to flow through, while directing only a small, measurable fraction of that current through the ammeter itself. This enables the ammeter to accurately display high currents while protecting its internal components. By using a shunt, the design of the ammeter can remain compact and sensitive, suitable for a wider range of applications.
The internal resistance of an ammeter is very low. This is necessary in order to minimize the impact of the ammeter on the circuit being measured, ensuring accurate readings of the current flowing through the circuit.
The VA burden of an ammeter refers to the amount of power that the ammeter itself consumes or requires to operate while measuring current. This is expressed in volt-amperes (VA) and is a product of the voltage across the ammeter's internal resistance and the current flowing through it. A higher burden can affect the accuracy of current measurements, especially in low-current applications, as it introduces additional resistance and can alter the circuit conditions. Therefore, selecting an ammeter with an appropriate burden is crucial for accurate measurements.
