View Ammeter Symbol Electrical Circuit Pictures. Introduction of ammeter as we know a word meter is associated with the measurement system. Electric currents are measured in amperes (a), hence the name.
A voltmeter is used to measure the potential difference or amount of push between two parts in a circuit.
An ammeter measures current and a voltmeter measures a potential difference. Knowing that the circuit formed by the movement and the shunt is of a parallel configuration, we know that the voltage across the movement, shunt, and test leads (total) must be the same Introduction of ammeter as we know a word meter is associated with the measurement system. An ammeter is an electrical measuring instrument, and is used to measure the current in a circuit.
