To be fair he did use a multimeter which thousands of DIYers wouldn't have bothered with. So although he couldn't measure low resistance effectively he did try.

There should be a way of flagging this kind of stuff on youtube. It's really not safe advice to follow.

To be fair he did say if you were a novice to seek professional advice, and I guess if you know what you are on about you would see his mistakes and so not follow it. All in all a pretty useless video.

Keep them coming @Pete999

I found a nice selection of videos for training purposes, unfortunately they are in Hindi so may have a limited audience but you can catch most of the key words such as 'supply' and 'testing' so you can get the gist. Also read the comments on youtube below the video, clearly everyone else finds them useful too.

Another classic you tube video that should be flagged up and removed mind you if they removed them it would not be available for our amusement.
P.S my multimeter plays pink floyd when i get continuity lol
