A method of manufacturing an incontinence detection pad, the method comprising unrolling a continuous roll of backsheet material having a series of electrode traces printed thereon, each electrode trace on the continuous roll having a sacrificial trace portion, attaching an RFID tag to a pair of terminal ends of a first trace electrode of the series of electrode traces, testing the first electrode trace by exciting the RFID tag with energy to confirm that the first electrode trace forms a completed short circuit between the terminal ends of the first electrode trace, and cutting the backsheet material at a location which severs the sacrificial trace portion from the rest of the first electrode trace, thereby leaving a pair of spaced moisture detection electrode traces on a first backsheet for a first incontinence detection pad and leaving the sacrificial trace portion behind on a trailing, second backsheet for a second incontinence detection pad.
