It is the best video available for this search on YouTube. I had blown my fuse because I was not knowing how to measure the current. Thanks for teaching bro. LOVE FROM INDIA.

Excellent video! You cut out the bullshit and got right to the point! Thank you.

Thank you very much. I had tried connecting directly and the light has switched off on my circuit. You have shown a very important point to be noted. Thanks a lot!

Good tutorial. I hope I don't blow any fuses next time I try this . Only thing I notice you didn't mention the setting engaged on the multimeter.

Thank you for putting up this video. It confirmed that I was right to be suspicious about the advice I got, which probably would have resulted in damage to my equipment.

Thanks. I was trying to figure out how to measure current in a 100 watt solar panel. This video popped up.

Hi can i connect Ammeter after the load in the same circuit???

Nice video. Now please teach us how to measure the output current from a SMPS (Switch mode power supply) to see if it is the same as stated on the SMPS.

Can this work with ac to dc converter?

Explanation good and nice video bro it is very helpful

This is useful, but holding the leads with bare hands on a higher amperage circuit, your body is part of the circuit and could put current through your body or heart.

Can you measure it without cutting the wire apart. Like just split the sleeving.

Why did u disconnected the fuse?
Is it mandatory to check the current?
