Unlikely.

More likely the technician was the end user of the pre-packaged
implementation worked out be the designer of the meter.

Using an ohm meter to measure continuity, or even to measure a
resistance and guestimate how far to a fault does not imply using ohm's
law.

Now if you measure two of voltage, current, or resistance, and use
those to determine the missing third, then you are using ohms law.  But
really, how often do you do that?

And no, don't delve into what the meter is doing internally, unless you
are breadboarding up a meter from movements and shunts everytime you
want to take a measurement.  We know the engineer who designed the
meter knows ohms law - the question is if the technician using the
meter uses ohms law with any frequency?
