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 …

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 …

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, …

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 …

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 …

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 …

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 …

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 …

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 …

May 19, 2013 · Inside a panel it can be easily done with an ohmmeter to verify that the wire is continuous. For long field runs that are often damaged in pulls the only practical solution is to …
