After a few coworkers requested my assistance on the matter, I decided to write about "What is 'ammeter'". If you're still with doubts, bear with me…
Would you like a simple definition?
ammeter, instrument for measuring either direct or alternating electric current, in amperes. An ammeter can measure a wide range of current values because at high values only a small portion of the current is directed through the meter mechanism; a shunt in parallel with the meter carries the major portion.
A quick answer is…
An instrument for measuring the magnitude of electric current flow.
Ammeter is an electrical measuring device that is useful for the measurement of electric current through the circuit.
According to wikipedia…
Well, I looked at the wikipedia and they have defined “ammeter” like this:
An ammeter is a measuring instrument.
Let’s start by reviewing a few questions people ask:
Ammeter
What is the difference between ammeter and ampere...
As we all know an ammeter is an electronic device used to measure currents thus it is connected to a measurement system. In the same way, an ammeter is nothing but an ampere measurement Ampere is a no unit for measuring a current. This meter is used to measure the current.What is the use of Ampere Meter...
Ammeter or ampere meter is an electrical measuring device, which as seen from its nomenclature is useful for the measurement of the ampere i.e. to measure electric current through the circuit. The normal symbol of ampere meter is capital A mentioned inside a circle.What is the measure of current in an ammeter...
An ammeter measures the current and the measure of current is ‘Ampere’ also known as ‘amps’ in short. This name is derived from the name of a physicist. 3). What is meant by one ampere?If you still haven’t found what you were looking for, be sure to drop me a message in the comments section below, ok?
