Multimeters are essential for anyone working with electronics, electrical systems, and circuits. They provide a fast and easy way to measure voltage, current, resistance, and continuity in various electronic devices. However, using a multimeter can be dangerous if not done properly. One hazard of using a multimeter is the danger of electric shock. When testing live circuits or high-voltage components such as power supplies or transformers, there is always the risk of electrocution if you come into contact with exposed wires or terminals. To avoid this hazard, always ensure you have disconnected any power sources before taking measurements with your multimeter.
