So if one end, I'll get one core and touch it to the inner copper/cpc then go other end and test between the inner copper/cpc and the cores till it bells?
 
Yes.

If I have a helper I use a pair of GPO 704B linesmans 'phones, much more fun and saves running about, especially if the cable is long or in a different room. You can also tell the other bloke what to mark the conductor as.
 
No offence OP, but I think you could have put a bit more effort into your question to help clarify exactly what you are wanting to do. Daz
 
connect a diode across the 2 cores at one end. then use your meter at the other. that will prove continuity and also polarity. then IR test the cores to the sheath.
 
It's a common term for identifying conductors or cables, around this part of the country anyway.
