If you were to ask a random Hackaday reader what their most fundamental piece of electronic test equipment was, it’s likely that they would respond with “multimeter”. If you asked them to produce it, ...

Digital multimeters (DMM), once called voltmeters, have been described as the tape measure for engineers in the new millennium. With electronics and electrical circuits included in almost every ...

Measuring the electrical resistance (ohms) of motors, compressors, and other electrical devices in HVAC systems may seem straightforward. But when the measurements of zero (0) or “OL” (overload) come ...

Multimeters. They've been described as the tape measure of the new millennium. But what exactly is a digital multimeter (DMM) and what can you do with it? How do you make measurements safely? What ...

A multimeter is a versatile tool that can be used to measure voltage, current, and resistance in electrical circuits. It combines several measurement functions into one device, making it essential for ...

We would like to share a bit of good news; Collin’s Lab is back on the airwaves of the Internet. If you didn’t know, [Collin Cunningham] previously created excellent short videos, sometimes ...

Insulation failure is the root cause of many electrical conductors and equipment failures. When insulation fails, not only can equipment be damaged, but fire and shock can also result. Ideally, when ...
