Multimeter
Modelrailroad technical lexicon: Multimeter
Simple Digital Multimeter with Transistor possibility of testing
A multimeter is an electrical / electronic measuring device with which you can collect different types of measurement and areas with a single device. Basically, you collect so that resistance (ohms), voltage (volts) and amperage (amps). High-quality multimeter also offer the possibility of frequency, capacity, inductors and properties of electronic components (transistors, diodes measured). During the multi-meter a classic analog display in the form of a pointer instrument had modern multimeters are equipped predominantly with a digital display.
The reason is also that an electronic measuring equipment is now cheaper to produce than a high-quality ad by pointer instrument. The term "supplies" for the electric model multimeter is essential. In particular, the resistance measurement (vertical measurement), and the voltage measurement is needed in building and operating a model railway and model railway shop in the virtually permanent.
Simple multimeter with basic operations, see the electronic trading for no more than 10 euros, but these devices have generally not on overload or reverse polarity . A large selection of multi-meters from 3,97 € for example, offers Amazon http://alturl.com/piod .
