Question

why ammeter is connected in series​

Answer 1

mark me

An ammeter is connected in series with the circuit because the purpose of the ammeter is to measure the current through the circuit. Since the ammeter is a low impedance device, connecting it in parallel with the circuit would cause a short circuit, damaging the ammeter and/or the circuit.

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

An ammeter is connected in series because the function of ammeter is to measure the current through the circuit. Since metre is a low impedance device if we connect it in parallel it can cause damage to the circuit .
