This document discusses various types of measuring instruments used in electrical work. It describes the operation of analog meters like the d'Arsonval movement and how they differ from digital meters. It explains how to properly connect and read voltmeters, ammeters, ohmmeters, and digital multimeters. The key points are that d'Arsonval meters use a moving coil, voltmeters have high resistance and connect across circuits, ammeters have low resistance and connect in series, and ohmmeters must not be connected to live circuits.
