Detailed explanation-1: -A voltmeter is a device which is used to measure potential difference between two points in a circuit. Potential difference is measured in voltage, hence the name is voltmeter. Voltmeter is connected in parallel in a circuit.

Detailed explanation-2: -A voltmeter is an instrument used for measuring electrical potential difference between two points in an electric circuit. Analog voltmeters move a pointer across a scale in proportion to the voltage of the circuit; digital voltmeters give a numerical display of voltage by use of an analog to digital converter.

Detailed explanation-3: -voltmeter, instrument that measures voltages of either direct or alternating electric current on a scale usually graduated in volts, millivolts (0.001 volt), or kilovolts (1, 000 volts).

Detailed explanation-4: -A voltmeter is connected in parallel to the circuit to measure the potential difference between two points.
