When measuring current yes, definitely. When measuring voltage I would guess yes but it may be affected by the resistance inherent within each meter.
A related electric meter typically refers to a device that measures the amount of electric energy consumed by a residential or commercial facility. These meters can be analog or digital and are often connected to utility companies to facilitate billing and energy monitoring. Some advanced electric meters also allow for real-time data tracking, enabling users to manage their energy consumption more effectively.
You have a meter stack installed.
This is because digital meters do not continuously update the display. My meter for instance only shows a new number twice a second. If the voltage peaks between updates, you will never see it. Analog meters continuously follow the voltage, and the eye can follow the pointer as it peaks. Many electricians and technicans still hang on to their beloved Simpson 260 analog meter for this very reason. Many digital meters now have a little bargraph below the main display, set to act like an analog meter, to make this type of visual measurement possible. It should be noted that even the analog meter does not respond perfectly to voltages that change quickly, because the physical mass of the meter movement cannot accelerate insantaneously. So, if you see the needle "pulse", you know there was one, but you cannot rely on the needle to show the true peak. Such measurements are used to see the trend or get a rough idea of what is happening in the circuit. If you need to find the exact value, use an oscilloscope!
If you are cruising down the freeway, you can get about the same information on, say, your speed, if you look at an analog meter as a digital one. But if you are braking and your speed is changing, a digital meter will be "fluttering" as it continuously gets a new reading to post, and it won't be able to tell you how fast you're going. (This had to do with the way the sensors "sample" the speed to display it.) In the analog meter, the needle will be falling as you slow down, and the human brain has a better "grasp" of the "meaning" of the falling needle than it has of blinking numbers on a display. Certainly as the needle on an analog meter passes a specific mile-per-hour marker, you can see how fast you were going. But it is the value of the moving needle in the analog meter and the ability of the brain to "understand" it that makes it so much more effective than a digital display.
There are none except for the fact if the if the input signal has variations in value, with no filtering, the digital readouts can become a guess to read. Analog meters will average these variations as a wiggle of the needle so that the reading changes in a slower manner which is easier to read.

To connect meters in a circuit, it’s essential to determine whether you need to measure voltage, current, or resistance. For voltage measurements, connect the voltmeter in parallel across the component. For current measurements, connect the ammeter in series with the circuit component. Ensure the meters are rated for the circuit's voltage and current to avoid damage.
Electric companies calculate the amount of electric energy by using special consumption meters.
What is a Panel Meter? A panel meter is an instrument that displays an input signal in either a digital or analog form. Many panel meters also include alarm options as well as the ability to connect and transfer data to a computer. OMEGA's iSeries panel meters are available with an ethernet option which allows the panel meter reading to be accessed across a local area network (LAN) or even through the internet. directly quoted from here: http://www.omega.com/PanelMeters.html

The function of the electric meter is to inform the power company how much electricity you have used - so they know how much to charge you !AnswerWhat is colloquially known as an 'electric meter', or 'electricity meter', is correctly termed an energy meter. As the name implies, an energy meter is used to measure the amount of energy (not'electricity', which is not a quantity!) purchased from the electricity supply company for the purpose of billing its customers. This energy is measured in units called kilowatt hours (kW.h) and, for this reason, energy meters are sometimes referred to as 'kilowatt hour meters' or 'watt hour meters'.
