Question

Identify the step which is not correct in measuring the current by a multimeter.

  1. Set your multimeter's knob to the value you want to find.
  2. Plug the black probe into the common port.
  3. Plug the red probe into the jack marked for the value you need to find.
  4. Touch the other end of the black probe with the positive end of the electrical component.

hintHint:

Black color probe is used to carry current away from the device.

The correct answer is: Touch the other end of the black probe with the positive end of the electrical component.


    • Multimeter is a device that can measure voltage, and current.
    • The black probe of the multimeter is connected to the negative terminal of the device as it carry the current away from the device.
