Voltage defines potential differnce between 2 points, so voltmeter is connect in parllely.

Voltage will be measured with respect to positive and negative terminal that is why voltmeter will be placed parllely in the circuit.

Votmeter is used to measure Voltage.

Why it is used in parallel because to make reference with ground.

To understand in simple how your mummy measures your potential?

By Comapring you with your neighbour friend taking them as reference :)

What is the effect of high resistance on parallel connection?

Difference between resistance and impedance ?

In parallel devices, Voltages are the same.
In series devices, Currents are the same.

Voltmeter always connect in parallel & ammeter connect in series.

Voltmeter measures potential differenge between two terminal of the circuit. So it should be connect across two terminal. Hence it should be parallel with circuit.

Voltmeter is connected in series with the device we are measuring voltage for and ammeter is connected parallel to that.

Voltmeter must be connected in series because it is high resistance.

Shivshankar kumar said:   1 decade ago
Voltage is measured with respect to ground, so the one end will be at the measuring point and another will at ground so overall we can say it across the circuit. So it is parallel.
