Continuity testing (using a multimeter's continuity mode) is a more practical field method than resistance measurement because it reveals whether a complete circuit loop exists between two points, directly showing which conductors are shorted together without requiring calculation of conductor length or resistance values.

what I do is I take my multimeter and I put it on the continuity setting because that's more important I don't care how many ohms of resistance there is on any specific circuit
