🔍 Key Concepts

• Shunt resistor purpose in meter circuits • Difference between how ammeters and voltmeters are connected in a circuit • How meter movements are protected from high current

💭 Think About

• Think about which instrument must let most of the circuit current bypass the delicate meter movement through a low-resistance path. • Ask yourself: for each type of meter listed, is the main quantity measured by allowing current to pass through the meter movement or mostly around it? • Consider which instrument normally has a very low internal resistance and must be placed directly in the current path of the load.

✅ Before You Answer

• For each choice, decide if it is normally connected in series or in parallel with the load. • Identify which meter requires a low-resistance shunt so that only a small fraction of the total current goes through the movement. • Verify which meter type is designed to measure current directly in the load circuit, not voltage or power indirectly.
