Would welcome some advice and my searches have failed to find an answer to my question.
I am adding a socket in an upstairs room that already has two sockets.
In trying to figure out how the wiring runs and thus where to break in and extend the ring, I find that both sockets are on very different runs (though they are both on the upstairs ring). Each socket has the ring pair of wires (in and out so to speak) but they run off to other rooms rather than being connected together.
Is there a way I can test if the wire from one socket runs to another so that I can plan the routing properly (hate lazy routing).
I could spur off one of the sockets - but, I would prefer to solve the problem.
The wiring goes under floor boards that will be inaccessible so a junction box is not appropriate.
Thanks
