in instrumentation why we are using 4-20mA , why not
voltage ? if somebody design a instrument which works on
voltage then can we use that instrument?

if we use voltage there there is noise interpretation
where as in current it wont happen
and current supports 2 wire connection,voltage doesnt
there will be drop in voltage when its feedback in current
such loss is very less
