There are a few words you could use. Disruption, interruption or break would all work, as in: The continuity of the electrical current was interrupted. The continuity of the plain was broken by a low hill. The continuity of a process or a sequence is a hiatus.

1) A continuity tester is a simple device consisting of two testing probes and a light (LED) or buzzer indicator. It is used to detect the presence of continuity or a break in between the two ends of a conductor which is connected to its testing probes. For instance, if the two probes of a continuity tester are touched to the two ends of a wire bundle, its indicator may get activated to confirm that there is no interruption in the continuity of the wire and everything's fine, or, if the indicator shows no action it would mean that there's a break in the continuity of the wire and needs attention. It may also be used to trace out faults in complicated electronic.
A continuity test checks to ensure that there is no break in the conductors. An insulation test checks to ensure that the insulation is sound.
A hiatus is a lack in continuity. It means that the band is temporarly or even permanently on a break.
A break or solution in the continuity of the skin is known as a wound. It can be caused by cuts, scrapes, burns, or other injuries that damage the skin's protective barrier, allowing pathogens to enter the body. Proper wound care is essential to prevent infection and promote healing.
To check continuity in a long wire, use a multimeter set to the continuity or resistance mode. Connect one probe to one end of the wire and the other probe to the opposite end. If the multimeter shows a low resistance reading or beeps, it indicates that there is continuity in the wire. If there is no reading or beep, there may be a break in the wire.
The latin root word that means a break in the continuity of something is interruption.
