VACUUM TUBE VOLTMETER (VTVM)

VTVM is extensively used for measuring both A.C and D.C voltages.  The Vacuum tube voltmeter has high internal resistance (>10 M ohms) and draws extremely small current. The loading effect is very small. A VTVM measures the exact voltage even across a high resistance.  A vacuum tube voltmeter consists of voltmeter and electron tubes.
