More about multimeters
A multimeter is a handheld tester used to measure electrical voltage, current, resistance, and other values. Multimeters are great for troubleshooting. Is your circuit not working? Does the switch work? Put a meter on it! They are one of the tools preferred by electricians for troubleshooting electrical problems on motors, appliances, circuits, power supplies, and wiring systems. Check out Sparkfun's multimeter tutorial page for in-depth explanation of multimeters and how to use them.
