If a continuity test shows a complete circuit between two hot conductors (black and red on a 240-volt circuit), the fault is a 240-volt short circuit, which is typically accompanied by visible signs such as sparks at the breaker panel due to higher current levels.

“if there's continuity on these two that means you're going to have a 220 short but you can probably tell it's a 220 short because that's like a boom like a lot of times you'll see Sparks Fly Through of panel cover”
