How do I check for an open in a circuit?


Question:

Answers:
With a volt/ohm meter. Is it a line voltage or low voltage circuit? If you are not experienced with electical wiring I suggest you do all your checks with no power


get a circuit tester at any store (walmart, leows, home depot) . they're designed to test all 110 volt outlets and tells you immediately if that outlet is wired correctly or why it is not. All you need to do is plug the tester in the three-pronged outlet.
