An ammeter measures the electrical current in something. A digital one is calibrated to display through the shunt and convert information from the analog model.
Add an ammeter in parralel with the circuit. An ammeter in parallel with a circuit to be measured will not measure any current. In fact, placing an ammeter in parallel will cause a short. The ammeter must be placed in series with the circuit to be measured. It should be noted that this technique only allows for small magnitudes of current to be measured. One should not try to measure more than 10 amps using this method. However, this is not the goal of the question asked. I am not 100% sure what "intercepting the supply" means but I think the person asking the question means without breaking the circuit? In this case one could use a clamp on ammeter. There are several varieties that can measure low currents and there are those that can measure 100s of amps.
Multiply by 1,000,000
The resistance of the circuit will be 46 ohms
If it is a 32-amp circuit you can use any appliance that takes less than 32 amps. That includes a 15-amp appliance. All appliances fed from that circuit must use 32 amps or less in total.
To measure the amount of amps (A).
An "ampere" is a measure of the current in an electrical circuit.
Amps (A) measure electrical current flow, while volt-amps (VA) measure apparent power in an electrical circuit, which is the combination of both real power (measured in watts) and reactive power. Essentially, amps refer to current, while volt-amps refer to total power.
An electrical device may draw amps, but there is not a device that equates to amps. Amperes are the measure of current flow in a circuit.
An Ammeter. It measures the current (or Amps).
You use an "amp gauge" to measure amps in an actual circuit. It is hooked in series with the load. It can be placed anywhere in the circuit as long as it is hooked in series. Mathematically, you have to know the resistance, or wattage and voltage of a circuit. Volts=amps*resistance or amps=volts/resistance, or resistance=volts/amps. Ohms law!
Preferably with a multimeter. For amps you hook it up in series, for volts you hook it up in parallell. For Ohms, you'll need to have the item you want to measure separated fron the circuit.
How well it can measure current in an electric circuit and up to how many amps will it need to measure.
Watts measure power, or the rate at which energy is consumed or produced. Amps (amperes) measure electrical current, or the flow of electrons in a circuit. Ohms measure electrical resistance, or the opposition to the flow of current in a circuit.
If you would like to measure amps, there are two ways. First, you can splice the wire you'd like to measure the amps of in half, and have the ammeter/multimeter test leads touch each of the wire's sides. Now the circuit will connect up again as if you never cut the cable, and you can measure amps. The easier way is to get a clamp meter, which has a large loop that you can clip cables through and it will measure amps through induction, so you don't have to cut any cables.
A fuse rating of 5 amps means that the fuse will break the circuit if the current passing through it exceeds 5 amps. It acts as a safety measure to protect the circuit from damage due to excessive current flow.
Preferably with a multimeter. For amps you hook it up in series, for volts you hook it up in parallell. For Ohms, you'll need to have the item you want to measure separated fron the circuit.
