| The situation that could damage a multimeter is: **C) placing the test leads across a voltage source to measure voltage while in the resistance mode** link Reason: In resistance (ohmmeter) mode, the multimeter supplies a small internal current to measure resistance. If an external voltage is applied while in this mode, it can damage the internal circuitry of the meter. |
