Summary of the Circuit
This circuit consists of two resistors, a triple output DC power supply, and a digital multimeter. The resistors are connected in series with the power supply and the multimeter to form a simple measurement setup. The power supply provides a 6V potential difference across the series combination of resistors, and the multimeter is used to measure the voltage or current through the resistors.
