Fundamental Procedures: Ohmmeter

The ohmmeter is used to measure the resistance between two points in a circuit and also to check for continuity and the diagnosis of short circuits.

CAUTION: Do not attempt to connect the ohmmeter to any circuit in which voltage is applied. Such a connection may damage the ohmmeter.
