Voltmeter
It is a device used to measure Potential difference and is always put in parallel with the circuit element whose voltage is to be measured
Convert the galvanometer into a voltmeter by connecting a large series of resistances.
$$
R=\frac{V}{I_g}-G=\left[\frac{V}{V_g}-1\right] G
$$
V is the total voltage applied across the circuit and $V_g$ is the total voltage drop across the galvanometer.
