The present invention provides an apparatus and method for inspecting electrical continuity of a circuit board, capable of decreasing the impedance in a current path as an inspection object to achieve enhanced SN ratio. A coupling capacitance is formed at one of terminals of a pattern wire on a board as an inspection object in a non-contact manner, and an inductance (450) and a lead wire are connected to this capacitance. An AC inspection signal is applied to the other terminal through the lead wire in a contact manner. A resonance circuit is defined by the capacitance, inductance and pattern wire, and thereby an output signal can be detected with lowering the impedance.
