 Methods of Resistance Measurement

(A) Resistance Measurement Using Ohmmeter Method

(B) Resistance Measurement Using Method

(C) Resistance Measurement Using Method

(D) Resistance Measurement Using Potentiometer Method

(A) Resistance Measurement Using Ohmmeter Method

 We can deactivate all independent sources ( voltage

source as short circuit & current source as open circuit)
 No dependent source in the circuit
 We have Ohmmeter

R =………………………. kΩ
 (B) Resistance Measurement Using Method

 We can deactivate all independent sources ( voltage source as

short circuit & current source as open circuit)
 No dependent source in the circuit
 We have no Ohmmeter but have Voltmeter & Ammeter
 We have external voltage supply or we can use source voltage in
another branch

I =
1kΩ

Do similar process to find R

(C) Resistance Measurement Using Method

 We cannot deactivate any source ( independent & dependent)

 Ohmmeter cannot be used in this case to measure resistance directly
