Two technicians are discussing a resistance measurement. Technician A states that components being measured should be removed or isolated from the circuit. Technician B states that power to the circuit should be disconnected when measuring resistance. Which technician is correct?

They're both right, but technician's A's statement is better. If you just disconnect the power, you still have other components that influence the resistance measurement. So although B's statement is true, it doesn't help.

'Isolated' refers to a circuit separated from the AC line in order to prevent electric shock. A 'non-isolated' circuit is one not shielded from the AC power source, making electrocution possible. Applications requiring isolation circuitry include TVs and A/V sets.

Technician A states that components being measured should be removed or isolated from the circuit is correct

What does isolated mean in electricity?

An isolated power supply is a power supply that is electrically isolated from the rest of the circuit that it is powering, often by an isolation transformer. This means that power and voltage is transferred from the input to the output without a direct electrical connection between the two sections.

How to isolate a part of a circuit?

Isolate electricity to a particular electrical appliance by turning the switch on the wall socket to the "Off" position. By doing so you won't need to trip the switch or remove the fuse that connects the circuit to all the wall sockets.
