Answer / alwin george

An Ammeter Measures the amount of current flowing through
its coil, So the whole current to pass through it, it
should be connected in series with circuit.

Answer / lucky singla

there are two reasons for it
1- when ammeter is connected in series ,the amount of
current flows through it & electrical appliance will be
same because in series current is same

2-in series the ammeter offers less resistance &we also
know that the resistance of an ideal ammeter is 0

Answer / sandy

As we want to measure the current we have to place a low
resistance path in the circuit which energies the coil and
shows the actual current flow.

Answer / s.muraliraj

Because the Current is same in the Series, Varies in the
parllel, So, If we connect the Ammeter in parallel the
consuming current is perfect.

Answer / tarun aggarwal ymca

we place ammeter in series because as it sas low resistance
if it is conneceted parallel whole resistance become low and
current become high in ckt and reading become false so we
connect it in series

Answer / shantan kumar.r

An ammeter has a very low input resistance. If it is
connected in parallel with a circuit element such as a
resistor or a capacitor, it is the same as placing a very
low resistor in parallel with the component across which is
paralleled. So,..
