Called a multi meter and you want to use the ohm funtion, it tests continutity. Very handy.
To expand on this, put the meter on ohms (the omega symbol), and touch the two leads together. It should read near Zero ohms. Then, when you touch the ends of two wires together, if they're connected, you'll read near zero ohms. If they aren't connected, you won't read anything.
On my Fluke DMM, I turn the knob to ohms, then I press another button to turn the speaker on. Then when it reads under some threshold (5 ohm maybe?) it beeps at me. Very handy.
Also, I would find a set of automatic wire strippers. Makes stripping wires much easier and faster.
