When a multimeter is implemented as an ammeter, why do you plug one of the leads into “A” (amp) instead of “mA” (milliamp) when you are not sure which you should choose?

Amps is the generally the correct value

mA is such a small unit the meter may display an error

Each setting has a fuse and the Amp setting is less likely to exceed the maximum value

All of the above. None of the above; this is just the convention

Solution

Just for convention we do connect leads to \"A\" rather than \"mA\". more over we can measure a wide range of currents by connecting to A compared to mA.
