Creating an Extension Lead
Create an extension lead using the standard accessory kit.
Device-under-Measurement End
1.
Pass a lead wire through a heat-shrink tube for a contact. The lead
wire is not included. AWG 24 to 26 is recommended. The maximum
diameter is 2.0 mm. Here, a damping resistor can be inserted
between the lead wire and the contact as shown in the illustration
below.
2.
Crimp or solder the core of the lead wire to the contact. A dedicated
crimping tool is needed to crimp the lead wires.
3.
Cover the contact with the heat-shrink tube, and then apply heat
with a drier to fix the tube in place.

Note
If solder gets into the soldering-not-allowed part (4 mm from the tip of the
contact), the contact or the device under measurement may be damaged.
