Why Ammeter is always connected in series in the circuit and
Voltmeter in parallel?

Answer Posted / ekta choudhary

Ammeter is used to measure the current flowing through a
circuit element and current is nothing but it is due to a
continuous flow of electrons. We take caution also in
connecting (+) & (-)terminal of ammeter in which electrons
flow from (-)to (+)just opposite to the direction of
current. This is all about for series connection of ammeter
in circuit. If we take reason about parallel connection of
voltmeter across the circuit element then we should know
that it measures the voltage difference between the
required points of circuit element which can only be
measured by connecting it across the circuit element rather
than series connection of it.
