A silicon diode measures a low value of resistance with the meter leads in both positions. The trouble, if any, is
the diode is open.
the diode is shorted to ground.
the diode is internally shorted.
the diode is working correctly.

In case if it is short circuited it would have zero resistance. But ideally diode has zero resistance.

If internally short, how its show resistance becoz, incondition of short, the resistance should zero.

Yes, it should not be internally shorted because according to me, the resistance can come to zero.

Diode measures the low resistance means, diode should be in forward bias.

How the meter show 2 different values for measuring a single resistance?

Short circuted diode will behave like a superconductor and will melt.

What is meant by diode? What is the main application of diode?

Ch Mydhili said:   5 years ago
It is observed to test the working condition of the diode.
