New cards

Under what condition is a technician required to plug the red DMM probe into the dedicated high-current 10A socket?

Currents exceeding milliampere

limits

2
New cards

What is the ohms-per-volt sensitivity of a voltmeter with a 50uA full-scale deflection (FSD)?

20,000 Ohms per Volt

3
New cards

Where do you plug the red and black DMM leads to measure a 28V DC aircraft bus?

Red V-omega-mA, Black COM

4
New cards

Why are the current-measuring input ports on a Digital Multimeter always equipped with high-capacity intemal fuses?

Prevent dead short hazard

5
New cards

Which statement describes circuit loading during voltage measurements

Parallel voltmeter draws current

6
New cards

How does megohmmeter (megger) differ fundamentally from a standard digital multimeter?

Applies 250v to 1000v dc

7
New cards

What is the severe safety hazard associated with connecting an ammeter in parallel across an active voltage source?

Creates high current short circuit

8
New cards

Why do modern Digital Multimeters (DMMs) virtually eliminate the error of circuit loading?

Constant 10 megohms impedance

9
New cards

What is the primary purpose of a parallel shunt resistor connected across d’Arsonval ammeter movement

Bypasses majority circuit current

10
New cards

What physical circuit state is indicated when a digital ohmmeter displays 'O.L! (Out of Limit) across a wire conductor?

Open circuit physical discontinuity

11
New cards

What core safety and and operational rules must be followed before using an ohmmeter to check a components resistance

De-energize circuit, isolate component lead

12
New cards

How must a voltmeter be physically connected in a circuit, and what is its ideal internal resistance

Parallel connection, infinite resistance

13
New cards

What physical phenomenon generates the mechanical deflection torque in an analog d’Arsonval meter movement

Movable coil permanent magnet

14
New cards

Why is touching bare ohmmeter probes bad practice in high resistance testing

Body resistance false low

15
New cards

How must an ammeter be physically connected in a circuit, and what is its ideal internal resistance?

Series connection

zero ohms
