The plot of residential electricity, which is needed to find and connect the load high-power (filament lamp, a hot plate, iron) and connecting the millivoltmeter to the coil (see drawing) and slowly move it along the wall. The largest deviation of the instrument pointer will indicate the location of the wiring.
