Best Answer

The scale of each meter manufacturer will be different. You'll need to refer to the owners manual to determine the proper setting.

Remember that an ammeter is used INLINE with the electrical device to determine current draw. Do NOT put the test leads of an ammeter across the two leads of the service voltage.

The setting for microamps on an amp meter is typically selected using a switch or dial on the meter itself. Look for a setting labeled "µA" or "microamps" on the meter and switch to that setting to measure current in microamps. Make sure to follow the instructions provided with the amp meter for accurate readings.

Why a 5amp. rating ammeter is connected to secondary side of current transformer?

The maximum current output of a CT is 5 amps. Connected to a meter this will be full scale. What ever the ratio of the CT will dictate the scale face on the meter. A 500 amp CT's output will be 5 amps at 500 amps on the buss. 250 amps on the buss, the CT will output 2.5 amp or half scale on the meter face.
