Question 475Electricity & Electronics - QMED
70% to passWhat is the resistance reading at "2" on the megger scale shown in figure "A" of the illustration? Illustration EL-0044

A40 ohms
B400 ohms
C40,000 ohms
D40 megohms
AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) 40 megohms. The megger scale shown in figure "A" of the illustration EL-0044 indicates that the resistance reading at position "2" on the scale corresponds to 40 megohms. This is because a megger is a special type of ohmmeter used to measure very high resistance values, typically in the range of megohms (millions of ohms). The other answer choices are incorrect because 40 ohms (choice A) and 400 ohms (choice B) are too low for a megger reading, and 40,000 ohms (choice C) is too high for the "2" position on the scale shown in the illustration.
