What is the first step in testing a circuit for continuity?
Connect the circuit to a power source
Use a multimeter to check for resistance
Ensure the circuit is de-energised
Measure the voltage across the circuit
Answer explanation
The first step in testing a circuit for continuity is to ensure the circuit is de-energised. This prevents any risk of electric shock and allows for safe testing of the circuit's connections.

What is the purpose of using a Residual Current Device (RCD) in an electrical installation?
To increase the voltage
To protect against short circuits
To prevent electrical shock
To measure current flow
Answer explanation
A Residual Current Device (RCD) is designed to prevent electrical shock by detecting imbalances in electrical current. If it senses a fault, it quickly disconnects the circuit, enhancing safety for users.
