Question 550Electricity & Electronics - Assistant Engineer

The correct answer is A) the display would immediately show very low resistance but gradually climb to 'OL'. When testing a capacitor with an ohmmeter, an initially discharged capacitor will initially show a very low resistance as the meter measures the charging of the capacitor. However, as the capacitor charges, the resistance measured by the ohmmeter will gradually increase until it reaches the 'OL' or open-circuit indication, signifying that the capacitor is now fully charged. The other options are incorrect because B) the resistance would not remain at a slightly higher value, C) the low resistance would not remain constant, and D) the meter would not immediately show 'OL' for a good capacitor.
