I have a 200W generator (generates around 14V). I'd like to measure how much current it can produce. It needs to be read into labview. I have a NI USB-6008 DAQ reader. Am I correct in saying that I need a known resistance that can handle 200W then read the voltage over the resistance into labview and do I=V/R? Or is there an easier way without having to use a 200W resistor bank.
Thanks in advance.
