Question

Technician A says that a circuit with continuity reads 0 ohms. Technician B says that an open circuit reads 0 ohms. Who is correct

Answer 1

Answer:

  A

Explanation:

An open circuit has infinite resistance, not 0. A circuit with continuity usually measures a few ohms or less, depending on the length and gauge of the wire and the condition of the connections. Often, on a general-purpose ohmmeter, the reading is very near 0 ohms.

Technician A is correct.
