    One thing I recommend doing when performing a continuity test is to first touch the probes together to make sure you're on the right setting. Touching the probes together should make a beep and that would indicate you are checking continuity properly. Also, a lack of beeping when checking continuity indicates broken wire, NOT a short. This is the opposite of a short.

      The opposite of a short is an open which is the same as a broken circuit. There is no continuity in an open circuit. Think of a circuit with an on/off switch in the circuit, with the switch in the on position, power flows through the switch completing the circuit. The same switch in the off position creates a break in the circuit or an open spot that does not allow the electricity to flow.

    Its great having persons like your self doing you tube video giving your knowledge to others,
    Use help so many thousands in unanswered questions` that stop them in there tracks due to not being able to move further in there test because they become uncertain how to set the meter,
    In my day as a kid i grew up watching men working on a car in a street and willing to explain how and what they are doing,
    These days no one has the time, and if a teen stops to ask what they are doing ,they think there is a motive behind it other than the real reason for stopping and asking ,and get there back up,with a quick response to move the teen on there way,
    Its a shame this world has become this way, so this is why I really appreciate you guys who help others like my self,Thank`s

    5 million views!! That's the whole state of Alabama that watched this! I wonder how many Alabamans understand the relation between continuity and resistance. For instance you measured the resistance of an HT cable. Do we know why you don't measure for continuity too? Isn't that important? Why would anything have to resist the flow of electricity? Conversely when you measured for continuity why would you not need to see if it were resisting to some extent?
    Anyway, you're clearly doing a very popular service for five million people! That is HUGE. Clearly there's a great market, a great hunger to understand, to which you are responding. Thank you.

      everytime I put my multimeter to measure the resistance of a transformer is always different. It can vary from 1 to 100ohm, in two/3 different measures... It has happened that when I measure a resistance of which is supposed to be1000 ohms and my transformer 0,9 ohms, then a second time my transformer measures 10ohms and again the resistance it shows 1009.. The craziest value was 100ohms for an output of 12volts - and only 220volts is normally 14ohms - so after that had happened my resistance of only 1000 was measuring 1100ohms...
      I don't know if it is because the multimeter is bad quality, or that is normal to happen. Mine is not as sophisticated as yours, I can only measure a maximum of 10 amp for example... Here is a link where you can see what type I am talking about...www.google.pt/search?q=multimeter&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiL_o-0r_vMAhVFOhoKHUKECmAQ_AUIBygB&biw=1518&bih=692&dpr=0.9#imgrc=ojkDzYcRzj3p2M%3A What do you recommend me, is that normal to measure different resistances values in the same device? Have you already measured resistance in a ferrite transformer with its primary only? Is that normal to happen?

      @@chestermartin2356 ya sorta a bad sign. I hope he isn't as incompetent as he sure seems. Would have for him to cause a power outage for an entire city because he didn't know what he was doing.

    Thank you for this video. I’m going to be rewatching this, oh about a dozen times! You covered a LOT of info & I might say very well! Concise & to the point, you showed me stuff I’ve only wondered about for over 50 years! I have primarily used one of these just as a circuit tester and voltage meter. And I never knew how exactly to do it. I just stumbled along. You’d think the manufacturer would have decent instructions. But o never saw any! So thanks! You’re a Mensch!

    Thanks a lot this video is very informative, and my son finally understands how to use a multi meter. But one thing I would like to say to all the people that have something to say about everything , if you know so much why don’t you make your own video explaining how to use a multi meter and hopefully nobody corrects you. Just saying 🤪

    Clear and concise nicely explained I have thw same meter from harbor freight.
    nice to see someone explain someting and not be so full of himself no fireworks
    just plain direct formation to the public this is why he has so many subcribers he explains all topics in such a way.
