Digital Ohmmeter 20K?
Product Code : SCL-EAE-12251
Digital Ohmmeter 20KΩ (SKU SCL-EAE-12251) is a laboratory resistance meter that measures resistance up to 20 kΩ and shows the value as a digital reading in ohms or kilo-ohms. It is used in school and college physics and electronics labs, STEM classrooms and technical institutes to check resistors, coils, wires and circuit sections. Science Lab Supplies produces it at Plot 448, HSIIDC Industrial Area, Saha, Ambala, India, and supplies schools, colleges, tender contractors and distributors without a middleman.

Applications and Experiments for the Digital Ohmmeter 20KΩ
The ohmmeter gives a direct resistance value, so students can check a resistor before building a circuit, compare measured and marked values, and confirm continuity in wires and coils. Its 20 kΩ range covers the resistors common in school physics lab equipment in India and basic electronics benches.
- Class 10–12 physics: checking resistances before Ohm’s law and series-parallel practicals, and comparing results with values set on a Resistance Substitution Box.
- Class 12 and B.Sc.: cross-checking the steps of a Resistance Box Electronic Type and the resistance of coils and wires.
- ITI and electronics training: testing components, open circuits and continuity on trainer boards.
- STEM labs: building resistor colour-code exercises around measured values.
Always switch off and disconnect power before measuring, and discharge any capacitor in the circuit first; resistance must never be measured on a live circuit.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does 20KΩ mean on this ohmmeter?
It means the meter reads resistance up to 20 kilo-ohms, which is 20,000 ohms. Resistors and coils above that value need a meter with a higher range, such as a multimeter with several resistance ranges.
Can the ohmmeter be used on a live circuit?
No. Resistance is measured only on circuits that are switched off and disconnected, or on components removed from the circuit. Measuring on a live circuit gives wrong readings and can damage the instrument.
How is it used in a resistance practical?
Students touch the leads across the resistor, wire or coil, read the value in Ω or kΩ from the display, and compare it with the marked value or with the result calculated from voltage and current.
Is Science Lab Supplies the manufacturer or a trader?
Science Lab Supplies manufactures this ohmmeter at its factory in Saha, Ambala, India. Quotations are prepared by the manufacturer itself, which keeps specifications and delivery details in one place for the buyer.
