    10 Types of Electrical Measuring Instruments and

    Their Functions
    • Ohm Meter
    • Ohm meter is a device that functions to measure
    the amount of electricity from a switch. According
    to ohm’s law, the circuit of electric current is
    directly proportional to the voltage. This device
    focuses more on resistance only.
    • Ohm meters are divided into two, one of them is
    analog ohm meters. It is a simpler device because
    it measures with a needle, so you have to be more
    precise in seeing where the number is located.
    • Digital ohm meter is an ohm meter that provides
    more accurate and detailed results. The
    disadvantage of this digital ohm meter is that it is
    difficult to monitor when the voltage fluctuates.
    This ohm meter also has the function of knowing
    the damage to an electrical circuit, so it can help
    your work faster.
    • Frequency Meter
    • this device has a function to
    measure the repetition of
    periodic movements per second.
    The frequency meter also
    consists of analog and digital,
    where the analog meter
    frequency works by manual
    needle, and digital frequency
    meters use more detailed
    numbers.
    • Volt Meter
    • this device has a function to measure
    the amount of voltage of an electric
    current flowing per second. This volt
    meter can measure the electric
    voltage within a predetermined
    maximum limit. If the voltage exceeds
    the limit it will cause damage to the
    device.
    • Volt meters also consist of two types,
    they are analog volt meters and digital
    volt meters. Analog volt meter works
    by using a needle, while digital volt
    meter can show you the number in
    detail.
    • Ampere Meter
    • This tool serves to measure the
    electric voltage current in a
    closed circuit. You only need to
    attach this ampere meter to the
    circuit of electric current you
    want to measure.
    • Watt Meter
    •
    This electric measuring device is
    a combination of an ampere
    meter and a volt meter. Besides
    being able to measure direct
    current power, the watt meter
    can also measure the power of a
    single phase alternating current
    and measure the power of a
    three-phase alternating current.
    • Megger
    • Megger stands for mega ohm
    meter. Megger is a measuring
    device to give you information
    whether the conductor of the
    instances has a direct
    connection. Its general function
    is to measure the insulation
    resistance of power tools. The
    minimum is 1000 x working
    voltage.
    • Kwh Meter
    • Kwh meter works by using magnetic field
    induction that moves the aluminum plate.
    Kwh meter is used to calculate electrical
    energy consumption. Meanwhile, the
    induction of kwh meter is one of the type
    that is useful for calculating household
    electrical power.
    • In general, this kWh meter is easy to find
    in every house, because this kWh meter is
    required to know each electricity
    consumption in households and other
    buildings that use this device. The usage
    will be a bill that must be paid every
    month.
    • Taco Meter
    • This device has a function to
    measure the engine rotation of
    vehicles, such as cars and
    motorbikes. This device has a
    screen where it displays the
    speed of the vehicle. In addition,
    the taco meter is also used to
    measure the safe point that
    shows the vehicle rotation
    speed.
    • Oscilloscope
    •
    This device has a function to map the
    signal from electricity. This type of
    electric measuring device consists of a
    physical frequency component.
    Oscilloscope has measurement results
    based on digital as well as graphs that
    are easy to read. There are so many
    benefits of this oscilloscope, such as
    differentiating AC and DC voltages in
    electrical components, knowing noise
    and checking electronic circuit signals.
    • Avo Meter
    • Avo meter stands for ampere,
    voltage and ohm meter. Avo meter
    is a multifunctional electric
    measuring instrument for
    measuring electric current, voltage
    and resistance of electronic
    components. Avo meter consists of
    analog and digital. The analog avo
    meter uses a needle as a pointer to
    the result. Where the digital avo
    meter displays a more accurate
    number behind the comma.
