Study Notes

Terminals in Multimeter

  • Terminals are where lead wires are connected for measurement.
  • Red lead wire represents the (+) pole.

Terminal Functions

  • COM (Common) terminal: connects the black lead wire and serves as a common ground.
  • 10A terminal: measures current in the range of 0 to 10A, connects the red lead wire.
  • V Ω terminal: measures voltage and resistance, connects the red lead wire.
