#meter.measuring_instrument any of various measuring instruments for measuring a quantity
supertype: #measuring_instrument__measuringinstrument__measuring_system__measuringsystem__measuring_device__measuringdevice instrument that shows the extent or amount or quantity or degree of something
subtype: #ammeter a meter that measures the flow of electrical current in amperes
subtype: #milliammeter a sensitive ammeter graduated in milliamperes
subtype: #electrometer meter to measure electrostatic voltage differences; draws no current from the source
subtype: #fluxmeter meter that measures magnetic flux by the current it generates in a coil
subtype: #galvanometer meter for detecting or comparing or measuring small electric currents
subtype: #astatic_galvanometer__astaticgalvanometer has a moving magnet and astatic coils arranged to cancel the effect of the Earth's magnetic field
subtype: #moving-coil_galvanometer a galvanometer that is operated by the force exerted by an electric current flowing in a movable coil suspended in a magnetic field
subtype: #ballistic_galvanometer__ballisticgalvanometer a moving-coil galvanometer that measures electric charge
subtype: #gas_meter__gasmeter__gasometer a meter for measuring the amount of gas flowing through a particular pipe
