    Cable break location

    Breaks in cables often occur. Has anybody any good ideas how to locate the break point? eg we have an office block in which the cpc is broken. Apart from the obvious ( looking at the fittings), how can we best locate the fault? Is there any method of measuring the length of wire that is intact?
