How do you measure the current of the equipment with a multimeter?
The position of the gear should be the same as the current measured. That is to say, according to the alternating current and DC type of the current to be measured, the correct choice of gear, alternating current corresponding to AC gear, DC corresponding to DC gear;
Connect the multimeter on the wire of the appliance. To do this, the first step is to switch off the appliance. The second step is to unplug the plug and connect the meter. The third step is to plug in the plug and close the switch. At this point, the meter reads for both.
Choose the right range, otherwise it will most likely lead to a burn out meter. If you do not know the magnitude of the current to be measured, you must choose the maximum range. For example, digital multimeter 20 amperes can measure up to 4.4 kW of electrical current;
