Ohmmeter - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
An ohmmeter is an electrical instrument that measures electrical resistance, the opposition to an electric current. Micro-ohmmeters (microhmmeter or microohmmeter) make low resistance measurements. ...

The two instruments most commonly used to check the continuity (a complete circuit), or to measure the resistance of a circuit or circuit element, are the OHMMETER and the MEGGER (megohm meter). The ohmmeter is widely used to measure resistance and check the continuity of electrical circuits and devices.

To calibrate the ohmmeter, you touch the red and black leads together and turn the adjusting screw until the needle is at 0. You should do this each time you use the ohmmeter and each time you change scales. DMMs do not need to be calibrated since they will self calibrate themselves.

CarGuru > Technology > question about reading an Ohmmeter 13 November 2006 13:23:07 ... Hi, I was checking spark plug wires with my ohmmeter and just want to make sure I know what I am looking at: When I set my meter at 20k ohms and measure an 18 inch plug wire, one wire reads 1.09 which I interpret to be 10,900 ohms...
