Jan 27, 2009 · A ohmeter, is designed to measure ohms. actually it dosent measure ohms it calulates ohms based on an applied voltage and a measured current, (snip) Right, I …

Apr 29, 2014 · An ordinary ohmmeter won't do it. From the ITT "Radio Engineers Handbook" the resistance of #3 Annealed copper wire at 20 C (68 F) is about 0.197 ohms per 1000n ft. Thus, …

Jan 23, 2020 · A two-wire ohmmeter won't be accurate enough to detect shorted turns, but a four-wire ohmmeter might. If you are going behind a two wire ohmmeter, an impedance meter that …

Feb 2, 2011 · The ohmmeter reading are actual readings. Take my 20K reading of .04. Larry says "For example, if you get a reading of 3.87 with the scale set to 20K, then the resistance is …

Apr 1, 2003 · Re: coil ohms If you are getting a 2 ohm reading with a basic ohmmeter, it is just the DC resistance. When energised from a 120 volt AC supply, there is also considerable …

Jun 7, 2013 · Remember that when you use a DC powered ohmmeter what you are reading is the DC resistance of the windings. When the transformer is actually in use the current through it …

Jun 2, 2010 · Testing 120V halogen 50 watt bulb with ohmmeter = 35.5 ohms Using Ohms law: E squared/wattage= 14400/50=288 ohms Why do I have this difference between metered ohms …

Sep 26, 2009 · I have no doubt, but as a general rule testing a solid state relay with a just an ohmmeter is just not the most reliable way to do it. You would first have to know with certainty …

Nov 1, 2014 · Along with some less common methods, an ohmmeter can apply a fixed voltage, and measure the current. The display must read the inverse of the current, making for an odd …

Dec 21, 2014 · The ohmmeter can be confused by AC flowing through the breaker at the same time. The most revealing measurement will be under a steady load, using a voltmeter across …
