  • Lego : D!

  • Nice Tutorial

  • i watched 20 multimeter videos and they were all awful. thank you for making a good one

  • Thanks, finally a good video.

  • dude your tutorial is the best out there, know I really understand my meter, and i really wanna have your fluke meters, but i'm stuck with a $25 meter from radioshack, although it still works well!

  • I think I can actually use my multimeter now! Thanks!

  • thanks for vid 1st 1 iv seen that makes sense :d 5 stars

  • 1:15 is wrong, there are DMM or multi-meters that use the same socket for the test probe for both voltage and current, switching is internal. Usually for higher current there is a separate socket for the test lead.

    3:20 simple way to say it is voltage measurement is in parallel and current is in series.

  • A big thank you for actually showing the settings...well done!

  • Dude,

    you are good master

  • Your video was very useful and clear enough to understand , thanks , great work.

  • hi i have a sykkes-pickavant multimeter i want to check if there is not bad circuit in my underfloor heating mat. can you tell me which symbol to use on the multimeter to check that plz?

  • What you need for that is the continuity setting ... do some searches for more info the symbol looks a little like this -))) .

    You can tell if it works by putting the negative and positive leads together and you should get a beeping sound (if your multimeter supports continuity testing)

  • Your vid is the only one I found that actually SHOWS the viewers which symbol to turn the dial to for measuring the corresponding unit. GREAT JOB man!

    Can you also tell us what the other 4-5 symbols measure on the multimeter?

  • "Ground is Negative" this is wrong!

    If you have a dual power supply, than you have a positive, a negative and a ground pole (+1V; -1V; 0V). You can say that ground (0V) is more negative than the positive pole (+1V), additionaly in dual power supplies ground (0V) is more positive than the negative pole (-1V). Mostly ground ist also connected to earth, like in a oszilloskope or switching power supplies. If you use a power supply with a transformator, ground is not connected to earth.

  • A power supply can be connected to Earth-ground...well i know there are special transformators that are completely seperated, but my power supply ahs a yellow green earth GND input

  • is the black wire ground or negative?

  • Ground is Negative

  • This mecatronic

  • can you give me the sit to where you got your multimeter?
