Test and Measurement

Safety Precautions
Always inspect the test probes for cracks and frayed leads before each use. If defects are found, do not use the probe.

Warning

Burns, due to arcing or flashover resulting from the use of unsatisfactory test probes, account for more accidents in electrical testing than are caused by electric shock. Because of this, fused test leads with 2mm or less of exposed insulation are recommended for electrical use by the HSE in their guidance.
