How to measure amps?

Glad you asked...

To measure amps, you can use a digital multimeter. Set the selector to read amps from battery or from ac. Set the range so that the reading is higher than you might think. Place the leads on their proper terminal for measuring current. Then break the circuit to measure it's current.

Then again, this answer might help you...

When you measure amps you are measuring the current of a component or item. To measure amps you would use a voltmeter or a multimeter. You should not exceed your meter's current rate as this may result in problems such a fuse blowing.
