walk around with your Loop meter find the higest reading, remove socket, find broken conection, reconect it,, jobs done
I'll tell you how i do it, without the hassle of dragging wander leads all over the gaff.
Remove all the plugs from the sockets in that circuit. connect one leg only of the offending component of the ring, perhaps an earth in your case and then go round with a typical three neon socket tester and find out at which point you go from earth fault to a good reading. Then connect the other end and do the same in the opposite direction - you will narrow down the fault in no time.
If the fault is within an FCU on the ring main, you will also be able to narrow this down too.
Then do the same for your line circuit.
I have used this method loads of time and it is much quicker than pulling the wander lead around.
