[QUOTE="onthewater102, post: 365363, member: 13702"] No - but you could run a temporary wire to cover 14 of those 15 feet and give yourself a connection closer to the device you're testing - hell - I don't even cut a wire to cover the length - i just take my spool, run it out to wherever and attach the free end to the far connection i'm trying to test - don't have any waste that way... As far as the lazy 'Murican "I don't know how so I'm not going to be bothered trying" response: five minutes searching you-tube and you should find a host of videos explaining how to work a multi-meter. They're extremely useful, and the $5 they cost will undoubtedly save you from having to replace a much more expensive part down the line, or worse personal injury if working with AC around your home.
