Ohmmeter Scale Reading

An ohmmeter is an instrument used to measure electrical resistance. It has scales and ranges to read resistance values from fractions of an ohm to megohms. The pointer deflection on the scale is multiplied by the range setting to determine the actual resistance reading. Common applications of an ohmmeter include testing switches, wires, loads, and semiconductor components for continuity or resistance faults.
