Question

Is there anything else the oscilloscope could be used for in a dc circuit?

Are there any other measuring tools besides DMMs and scopes that could be used to detect opens or shorts in dc circuits?

Answer 1

direct-coupled We can measure DC voltage oscilloscope that has a or current in DC Circuits with an deflection amplifier or teminals for connecting directly to the cathode-ray tubes deflection plates, but measuring DC voltage using an oscilloscope is only convenient in some situations- e.g., when we are using the oscilloscope to take other measurements on the same piece of equipment or when we need a high-impedance measuring device and a vacuum tube voltmeter is not available V For opens and short circuits: Yes the instrument transformers can be used for measuring open circuit voltage and short circuit currents: Instrument transformers are high accuracy class electrical devices used to isolate or transform voltage or current levels. Current transfomers are used to measure the high currents which occurs in short circuit The potential transformer operates on the same principle and which can be used for measuring the open circuit voltages
