1. INtRODUctION

the straight and pistol-grip spring loaded 10a test probes can be used to measure a low resistance 
very accurately with micro-ohmmeters that have binding posts from 4mm to 6mm in diameter or safety 
terminals 4mm in diameter.

 

„

the pistol-grip spring loaded test probes ensure a good contact at the measurement point even if the 
surface is uneven.  

 

„

the straight spring loaded test probes can, in addition, improve the contact by removing a thin layer of 
rust, paint, or dirt. When the user presses on the probes, they rotate as they retract. 

 

„

the resistance of each 10a test probe is very low.

 

„

the measurement is made in 4-wire mode, therefore lead resistance compensation is not necessary.

 

„

the straight spring loaded test probe, which is thicker, allows a more “rugged” use. the pistol-grip test 
probe is used for applications in more confined spaces.

NOtE: 

at the other end of the leads there are safety terminals 4mm in diameter onto 

which spaded lugs (6mm in diameter) are screwed into. 

these probes can therefore 

be used with micro-ohmmeters having either binding posts from 4mm to 6mm in 
diameter or safety terminals 4mm in diameter.
