Abstract:
An electrical test lead probe for use with a multi-meter provides for releasable retention in and electrical contact with a terminal of an industrial terminal block. The test lead probe includes a self-adjoining electrically conducting tip that is configured for automatic releasable receipt into a terminal block socket of various styles of terminal blocks, the terminal block socket housing a terminal of the terminal block. The present terminal block probe, in one form, is permanently attached to a multi-meter test lead. In another form, the present terminal block probe is coupled to a modular multi-meter test lead. In yet another form, the present terminal block probe has a removable head incorporating an electrically conducting, self-adjoining tip wherein the body is permanently attached to a multi-meter test lead. In a modular form, a plurality of terminal block probes may be provided each one of which has an electrically conducting tip of a different configuration corresponding to different configurations and/or sizes of terminal block sockets.
