Question
when measuring resistance with an ohmmeter, a observe polarity. b disconnect power. c add power. d insulate probes.
When using an ohmmeter to measure resistance, power must be disconnected from the circuit being measured. This is to prevent damage to the ohmmeter and to get an accurate resistance - value reading. Resistance is a property of a component or circuit in the absence of an external power - source driving current through it. Polarity is not relevant for most resistance measurements (resistors are usually non - polar). Adding power would interfere with the measurement, and insulating the probes is not a necessary step for basic resistance measurement.
