What I Need to Know

This module was designed and written with you in mind. It is here to
help you master how to input data into computer. The scope of this module
permits it to be used in many different learning situations. The language
used recognizes the diverse vocabulary level of students. The lessons are
arranged to follow the standard sequence of the course. But the order in
which you read them can be changed to correspond with the textbook you
are now using.

The module contains only one lesson:

• Lesson 1 3 Determine Criteria and Plan an Approach for Testing

Electronic Components

After going through this module, you are expected to:

1. identify the parts of an analogue multi tester;
2. measure some electronic components; and
3. practice safety while measuring electronic components.

What I Know

Direction: Identify the word or phrase being described in the sentence. Write your
answers in your notebook.

What is It

A multimeter or a multi-tester, also known as a volt/ohm meter or VOM, is

an electronic measuring instrument that combines several measurement functions
in one unit. A typical multimeter may include features such as the ability to
measure voltage, current and resistance. Multimeters may use analog or digital
circuits4 analog multimeters and digital multimeters (often abbreviated DMM or
DVOM.)

Initial Steps in Using Analog Multi‐tester

1.
Locate the dial of your multimeter. This has the arc
shaped scales visible through the window and a pointer which
will indicate the values read from the scale.

2.
Find the selector switch, or knob. This allows you to
change the function between volts, ohms, and amps, and to
change the
scale (x1, x10, etc.) of the meter.

3. Locate the openings in the case where you’ll insert the

test leads. Most multimeters have several jacks used for this
purpose.

4. Locate the test leads. There should be two test leads or

probes. Generally, one is black and the other red. These are
used to connect to whatever device you’re planning on testing
and measuring.

5. Find the battery and fuse compartment. This is

usually found on the back but is also sometimes on the side of
some models. This holds the fuse (and possibly a spare), and
the
battery that supplies power to the meter for resistance tests.

6. Find the Zero Adjustment knob. This is a small knob

usually located near the dial that is labeled "Ohms Adjust," "0

Adj," or something similar. This is used only in the ohms or resistance range,
while the probes are shorted together (touching each other).
Measuring Resistance

1 . Set the multimeter to Ohms or Resistance. Turn the

meter on if it has a separate power switch. When multimeter
measures resistance in ohms, it cannot measure continuity
because resistance and continuity are opposites. When there
is little resistance, there will be a great deal of continuity, and
vice versa.

2. Observe the meter indication. If the test leads are not in

contact with anything, the needle or pointer of an analog
meter will rest at the left-most position. This represents an
infinite amount of resistance, or an "open circuit." It’s safe to
say there is the no continuity, or path between the black and
red probes.

3 . Connect the test leads. Connect the black test lead

to the jack marked "Common" or "-". Then, connect the red
test lead to the jack marked with the Omega (Ohm symbol) or
letter "R" near it.

4 . Hold the probes at the end of the test leads

together. The meter pointer should move fully to the right.
Locate the "Zero Adjust" knob and rotate it so that the meter
indicates "0" (or as close to "0" as possible).

5. Measure the resistance of something like a light

bulb that you know is good. Locate the two electrical contact
points of the bulb. They will be the threaded base and the
center of the bottom of the base.

6. Try different ranges. Change the range of the meter to

R x 1. Zero the meter again for this range and repeat the step
above. Observe how the meter did not go as far to the right as
before.

7. Test resistance between hands. Set the meter to the

highest R x value possible and zero the meter.

8. Make sure your reading is accurate. It’s very important that the probes not
touch anything other than the device being tested. A device that has burned out
will not show "open" on the meter when testing if your fingers provide an alternate
path around the device, like when they are touching the probes.
Measuring Voltage

1 . Set the meter for the highest range provided for AC

Volts. Many times, the voltage to be measured has a value that
is unknown. For this reason, the highest range possible is
selected so that the meter circuitry and movement will not be
damaged by voltage greater than expected.

2. Insert your test probes. Insert the black probe in the "COM"
or "-" jack. Next, insert the red probe in the "V" or "+" jack.

3 . Locate the voltage scales. There may be several Volt scales

with different maximum values. The range chosen by the
selector knob determines which voltage scale to read.

Measuring Amperes

1. Make sure you’ve measured the voltage first. You need to

determine whether or not the circuit is AC or DC by measuring
the voltage of the circuit as described in previous steps.

2 . Set the meter to the highest AC or DC Amp range

supported. If the circuit to be tested is AC but the meter will
only measure DC amps (or vice versa), stop. The meter must be
able to measure the same mode (AC or DC) amps as the voltage
in the circuit, otherwise it will indicate 0.
