- In this LearnElectrics video we look at ways of finding breaks or damaged wiring in a ring circuit. The methods you might employ if a periodic inspection of a premises has identified problems with the circuit. If you’re new to the trade or perhaps if testing is now part of your job description, this video will help.
We’ve had lots of questions posted …
How do I test for broken wires in a ring circuit?
Or … During an Inspection and Test there is no continuity on some of the end to end tests.
How do I find the problem?
What readings should I get at the sockets and how can the resistance readings help me to find the problem?
And lots more, including how to test without a wander lead

Thumbs up first then start watching
Great video Dave, I like to use the method you described here. The only additional thing I do is put a piece of insulation tape on top of the socket with the measured resistance value written on it. I also then go back to the board and link the other end, then use a different colour tape and start writing resistance values on socket fronts. Then if the ring isn’t logically wired, at least you can start removing the two sockets with the “highest resistances” first. I find it very effective especially if you’ve no idea how the ring has been previously wired.
My favorite electrical knowledge channel, never disappoint you
I have my am2 coming up, thus channel is very helpful 👌
Great video thanks - I use the same method. I use the continuity buzzer but same result - been a spark since 1980 but I could listen to you all day cheers Dave keep em coming 👍
The one I've been waiting for, cheers Dave. Always excellently explained.
Very helpful video. Thanks
Brilliant, just brilliant.
When the route of the ring isn't quite straigtforward, Dave's video TRACING SOCKET CIRCUITS and other ELECTRICAL CIRCUITS is very useful
Hi Dave I be been registered Approved Contractor for 13 years I found your videos very helpful and the best available I listen your video when I can during the work or at home You are great thanks
I was waiting your video this morning, thinking what is it going to be 🤔
Excellent. Thanks 👍
Brilliant, thank you.
Brilliant videos 👍
Another great video 👍
Ive watched videos on this subject in the past but none were as clearly explained as this one, top notch 👍
Top Content every time
Simply the best! I love your methods and I never fail to understand everything clearly. Thank you once again
Brilliant, this is the easiest way 😊
Thank you 🙏🙏
