That is the wrong way to connect a current meter!
Current is measured in series between the source and the load.

Your meter as well as the circuit could be damaged by such mis-use.

So you weren’t trying to measure current?

But your meter did this: “with the meter on number 5 of the hot my meter is showing 1.3 amps on the ac scale” ?
Confusing!
