The ohmmeter reading for a short circuited capacitor is____________?
Correct answer: D. zeroCapacitors
- A. infinity
- B. few kilo ohms
- C. few megohms
- D. zeroCapacitors
Explanation
A short-circuited capacitor provides a direct conducting path between its terminals. An ohmmeter therefore measures approximately zero resistance rather than the high resistance expected from a sound capacitor.
