 It is the most common instrument used to
measure voltage
 It measure either AC or DC voltage
 It is a measure of the voltage between two
points of an electrical current
 Analog
The readings are shown on a scale
 Digital
The readings are displayed on a LCD or LED
display panel
 Work on the principle of Ohm’s Law
Potential Difference = Current × Resistance
(Volts)= (Amperes) ×
(Ohms)
 The voltmeter indicates polarity by direction by
needle movement with an analog instrument.
 For a digital instrument polarity is indicated by the
sign of the numerical value
 When measuring a voltage difference there are
always two leads coming from the instrument that
will have to be connected to the two points in your
circuit across which the voltage appears.
Voltage might be any of the following:
 Across an element embedded in a circuit.
 The output of a transducer measuring some physical
variable like temperature, pH, etc.
THANK YOU
