Output measured current as signal
Electrical / Sources
The Ammeter measures the current through the component and provides it as a signal at the output. The direction of a positive current is indicated with a small arrow in the component symbol. The output signal can be made accessible in Simulink with an Output block or by dragging the component into the dialog box of a Probe block.
Likewise, if switches connected in parallel are all in closed position the current through the individual switches is not properly defined. Although this does not produce a run-time error it may lead to unexpected simulation results.
