Description
We supply these Mercury test leads as a matched pair, one red and one black, ready to connect to your multimeter for everyday measurement work. They cover readings up to 1000V or 20A, which makes them suitable for most general electrical and electronic testing around the home, workshop or bench.
Each lead ends in a standard probe tip for touching test points, terminals and connectors. The red and black colour coding keeps your positive and negative connections clear while you work, which helps you keep track of polarity when taking readings. The insulated leads plug straight into the input sockets on a typical handheld meter, so there is no adaptor or extra fitting to worry about.
Because they handle up to 1000V and 20A, these leads work across low-voltage electronics and mains-level testing alike, within the ratings of your meter. Keep a spare pair to hand and you will not be caught out when a lead wears or a tip gets damaged. They are a straightforward replacement or backup set for anyone who uses a multimeter regularly, whether you are checking continuity, voltage or current draw.
