Answer by Spehro Pefhany for Continuity test on resistor

The continuity function is designed to give an audible indication of resistance that is less than some threshold value. To be useful, it will be designed to respond much more quickly than the display...

Answer by Pedro Quadros for Continuity test on resistor

The continuity test applies a very small voltage to the circuit and check what current flows through it. If the current is larger than the lower limit (for continuity test of your multimeter), it...

Answer by 0xDBFB7 for Continuity test on resistor

The continuity range usually has a certain resistance threshold in which it considers a wire to be closed. A long copper wire might be about 1 ohm, and you could probably expect that threshold to be...

Answer by vini_i for Continuity test on resistor

The continuity tester is meant as a pass/fail test. If the resistance is too high, then an open is assumed and no beep. If the resistance is below the preset threshold then it is assumed that a...

Answer by Pete Becker for Continuity test on resistor

You're right about what a continuity test is for: determining that two wires are connected. That implies a low resistance between them. So try it: test smaller and smaller resistor values until your...

Continuity test on resistor

I have a newbie question.I'm learning about electrical engineering and I bought my first multi-meter. It has a feature called "Continuity Test". I believe this test is to make sure conductors such as...
