What is Voltage,
Current, and
Resistance?
Voltage is how hard electricity is
being "pushed" through a circuit.
A higher voltage means the
electricity is being pushed harder.
Voltage is measured in volts. The
Current is how much electricity is
flowing through the circuit. A
higher current means more
electricity is flowing. Current is
measured in amperes. The symbol
Resistance is how difficult it is for
electricity to flow through
something. A higher resistance
means it is more difficult for
electricity to flow. Resistance is
measured in ohms. The symbol for

technically surpassed by digital
multimeters with bar graphs,
they may still be preferred by

Pointer is the needle-
shaped rod that moves
over the scale of a
meter. It is mechanically
connected to the
moving coil. It indicates
the measured values on
the multimeter.
Range Selector
Switch makes it
possible to select
different functions
and ranges of the
meter.
Zero Ohm
Adjustment is the
portion of the
ohmmeter where it is
adjusted when the
pointer of the
ohmmeter fails to
point to zero.
Scale is a series
of markings used
for reading the
value of a
quantity.
Adjustment Screw
makes it possible
to adjust the
pointer to the zero
position of the
scale.
Test Probe Positive
(red) and negative
(Black) is used to
connect the circuit
to the electrical
components being
tested.
