An ammeter is specifically designed and used to measure the flow of electric current (measured in Amperes) through a point in a circuit.
– An ammeter is connected in series within the circuit to measure the total current flowing through that part of the circuit.
A voltmeter is used to measure the potential difference (voltage) across two points in a circuit. A motor converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. A generator converts mechanical energy into electrical energy.
