You could then move logically to identify the different types of multimeters—digital and analogy--and briefly state how they differ. You then narrow your focus to the thesis statement: This paper describes the four main components of a digital multimeter and their functions. The body of the paper expands on the thesis statement. In the case of the multimeter, each paragraph will focus on a specific component of the multimeter and its function, using concrete supporting details). You may include graphics if or when needed. To ensure that the pararaphs flow smoothly and logically, use appropriate transitions. The conclusion gives completeness to a paper. It summarizes the main contents of the paper and state what you want the reader to take away from the paper. For example: One way to conclude a description on digital multimeter: Digital multimeter is one of the most important diagnostic tools used by electrical technicians to troubleshoot electronic circuits. Knowing how to properly use a digital multimeter means that technicians must first understand the basic parts and their functions so they are able to use the device correctly.
