  1. Multimeter Tutorial & Voltage measurement

  This first video covers how to measure AC (alternating current) and DC (direct current) voltage.

  I use a Fluke 177 multimeter for this demonstration provided by Comtest: www.ComTest.co.za

  Items covered in this multimeter tutorial:
  * Multimeter safety
  * How to measure battery voltage; how to measure a car battery / lead acid battery; how to measure mains electricity / power outlet / 220 volt / 110 volt.
  * What is electricity; how does electricity work; what is voltage; what is current / amps / ampage / ampere.

  2. Current Measurement I

  I also discuss AC (alternating current) and DC (direct current) voltage and which one can be more dangerous.

  4. Resistance & Continuity

  This third video covers how to measure resistance and continuity.

  I also discuss why power is transmitted from power stations using AC as apposed to DC.
