what is the best way of finding the two ends of the ring main as both need to be placed on the rcd side of the consumer unit.

if i was to place one end on the non protected side and one end on the protected side would this cause the rcd to trip when i try to turn on the fridge and or tv/dvd/xbox/cable.

Suggest you don`t attempt this, as both ends will go into 1 fuse / mcb. Correct testing is essential, and you need a qualified sparks. Best choice is the niceic website - they have a register of all qualified sparks in the country.
