Hi-fi equipment often uses analogue displays indicate how power lev-
els vary with time, which more informative than specific value. However, most instruments can be
broadly grouped under two general headings: those having analogue and
those with digital displays. Modern digital meters use semiconductor tech-
nology give the instrument very high-input impedance, typically about
10MΩ and, therefore, they are ideal for testing most electrical electronic
circuits. 5. Having moving parts, digital meters tend
to more rugged and, having very high-input impedance, they are ide-
ally suited testing all circuits that electrician might work his
daily work. The user must look straight the pointer the scale when tak-
ing readings and the correct position indicated when the pointer image
in the mirror hidden behind the actual pointer.9, lS.
Definition
Digital meters provide the same func-
tions analogue meters but they
display the indicated value using a
seven-segment LED give numeri-
cal value the measurement.
Analogue meters instruments
Analogue meters have pointer moving across calibrated scale.
Most meters using analogue scale incorporate mirror eliminate par-
allax error.11 would best.
The choice between analogue and digital display difficult one
and must dictated specific circumstances. Red or
danger zones can indicated industrial instruments.11

Analogue meters have pointer mov-
ing across calibrated scale. They are
the only choice when general trend variation value observed. That the point which
a reading should taken from the appropriate scale the instrument. However, you are an
electrician service engineer intending purchase new instrument, I
think balance that good-quality digital multimeter such that shown
