How to check if there is a break in a wire using a multimeter

Tony Warwick shows how to use a multimeter to check if there is a break in a wire. Before testing the wire, make sure your multimeter is working. You do this by connecting the 2 probes together to make a circuit. When a full circuit is made the multimeter should show a low reading. Before you start the test, make sure there is no power going to the wire. To test, connect the multimeter to each of the wire’s ends. As before if a full circuit is made and there are no problems, when connected the multimeter should show a low reading. If the reading is showing ‘I’ it means, there is a break.
