🔍 Key Concepts

• Meaning of "OL" on a digital multimeter set to ohms • Difference between open circuit, short circuit, and partial short in terms of resistance • What resistance reading you expect for a good wire conductor vs a broken one

💭 Think About

• If a wire is continuous and in good condition, what kind of resistance value (high, low, infinite) should the meter show? • What does it mean electrically if the meter cannot detect any path for current between the two meter leads? • How would the meter display differ if there were a short or very low resistance instead of no continuity?

✅ Before You Answer

• Check your understanding of "OL" or "Over Limit" on a digital meter’s resistance scale • Confirm what resistance represents an open circuit (no continuity) versus a short circuit (near zero ohms) • Verify what you would expect to see on the display if the meter leads are left unconnected in ohms mode
