Answer:
Ammeter
Explanation:
For measuring the amount of current flown in a circuit, Ammeter is attached in series to the existing circuit.
Of course! The Ammeter tells the magnitude of current in Amperes, since it is the SI Unit of Current.
However, ammeter cannot measure small current(very minute), in such cases we use another device called Galvanometer, which not only tells the magnitude of minute currents but also tells its direction by deflecting its needle towards the direction of current.
[In the attachment is a very cool Ammeter (lol, digital ammeter I meant).]
Hope this help!
