So, now I'm going to actually show you how to measure voltage on the meter itself. We have our meter measuring on one side of our load and on the other side of our load again in parallel, this allows us to measure voltage. You can see here, we have our voltage source depending on if it's AC or DC, it's either negative or neutral, A little diagram to help illustrate that just a bit better. Now, when measuring AC or DC voltage, we want to make sure that we measure voltage in parallel with our load. So, the first type of measurement that we're going to talk about is how to measure AC voltage. We then have 12 volts coming out to this terminal block and these terminal blocks and ultimately powering our load, which is a 12 Volt fan. In this case it's taking 120 volts AC power and converting that to 12 volts, DC power. Again, a power supply is a device that converts power from one type to another. That 120 volts comes over to this set of terminal blocks and is then transferred to a power supply. We have 120 volts coming in from a common outlet that you might find on your wall.
In order to do that I've created a very simple circuit and let me explain how this works. Again, today we're going to be talking about how to measure current, voltage, and resistance with the multimeter. Multimeters are tools that are used to measure voltage, current, and resistance, that can be very helpful in measuring any type of electrical equipment that we might be troubleshooting or working on. More specifically, how to use multimeters. Today we're going to be talking about multimeters. Hi I'm Josh Bloom, welcome to another video in the RSP Supply education series.
