BRIEF INTRODUCTION
Electrical measurements are the methods, devices and calculations used to measure
electrical quantities. Measurement of electrical quantities may be done to measure electrical
parameters of a system. High-precision laboratory measurements of electrical quantities are
used in experiments to determine fundamental physical properties such as the charge of the
electron or the speed of light, and in the definition of the units for electrical measurements.
Electrical measurements are a branch of the science of metrology.

3. Measures a wire's cross sectional area. Knowing the gauge is important because it
determines how much electric current a wire can carry without being damaged—this
quantity is called ampacity.

BRIEF INTRODUCTION
In 1826 Georg Simon Ohm discovered that for metallic conductors there is
substantially constant ratio of the potential difference between the ends of the conductor.
Ohm's Law states that the current flowing in an electric circuit is directly proportional to the
applied voltage and inversely proportional to the resistance of the material.
OHM’S LAW
Ohm’s law states that the voltage or potential difference between two points is
directly proportional to the current or electricity passing through the resistance, and directly
proportional to the resistance of the circuit. The formula for Ohm’s law
is V=IR. This relationship between current, voltage, and relationship was discovered by
German scientist Georg Simon Ohm. Let us learn more about Ohms Law, Resistance, and
its applications.
Most basic components of electricity are voltage, current, and resistance. Ohm’s law
shows a simple relation between these three quantities. Ohm’s law states that the current
through a conductor between two points is directly proportional to the voltage across the two
points.
I = Current
V = Voltage
R = Resistance
The three forms of Ohm’s law can be used to define the practical units of current, voltage,
and resistance:

REMEMBER
One of the most important and basic laws of electrical circuits is Ohm's law which
states that the current passing through a conductor is proportional to the voltage over the
resistance. Ohm's law describes the way current flows through a resistance when a different
electric potential (voltage) is applied at each end of the resistance. One way to think of this is
as water flowing through a pipe. The voltage is the water pressure, the current is the amount
of water flowing through the pipe, and the resistance is the size of the pipe. More water will
flow through the pipe (current) the more pressure is applied (voltage) and the bigger the pipe
is (lower the resistance).
