Digital Multimeter
Product Code : SCL-LM-11250
Quick answer: The Digital Multimeter is a handheld meter with an LCD and a rotary function and range selector that measures voltage, current and resistance with one instrument. It is used in physics and electronics practicals for Ohm's law, series and parallel circuits, testing cells and finding simple faults. Lab Exports manufactures it in Delhi for schools, colleges and universities.

How it is used
A multimeter combines a voltmeter, an ammeter and an ohmmeter in one case. The rotary selector sets both the quantity and the range, and the way the leads are connected must match it: across a component for voltage, in series for current, and across an unpowered component for resistance. Learning these three connections on one instrument is often the first practical step in electronics.
- Inspect the meter, leads and probe insulation for damage.
- Insert the black lead into the common terminal and the red lead into the terminal marked for the measurement.
- Turn the selector to the required function, starting on a high range.
- Connect in parallel for voltage or in series for current; switch the circuit off before measuring resistance.
- Read the LCD, then move to a lower range if a finer reading is needed.
Typical practicals include verifying Ohm's law, comparing the voltage across resistors in series, checking cell voltages and battery eliminators, and tracing a simple fault in a supervised circuit.

Frequently asked questions
What does a digital multimeter measure?
Voltage, current and resistance, selected with the rotary switch; the value appears on the LCD.
Why should a multimeter start on a high range?
Starting high protects the meter if the value is larger than expected; the range is then reduced until the reading is clear.
What is the price of the digital multimeter?
Prices are not published on the website. Add the digital multimeter to the Enquiry Cart with the Add To Cart button on this page, or email [email protected] with the house code SCL-LM-11250 and the quantity, to receive a quotation.
