Abstract
THE RELATIVE LOCATION in a circuit of a wattmeter, voltmeter, and ammeter generally requires careful consideration. The wattmeter reading will be greater than the load power by the power loss in the potential circuits or the current circuit, depending on the connection used. Ammeter or voltmeter readings will also differ for the same reason from the load value they should represent.
