Purpose-built test leads
Pomona Electronics 5898 test leads are a pair of 48-inch black and red cables rated for 1000 VAC. They suit technicians and hobbyists who need reliable connections to multimeters, clamp meters or other instruments that accept a standard shrouded banana plug.
Safety rating decides fit
The set carries a CAT II 1000 V rating without the protective cap and a CAT III 1000 V rating with the cap fitted, while supporting a maximum current of 10 A. Choose these leads only when your measurement category and voltage requirements match those exact ratings.
Right-angle plug eases bench work
Each lead terminates in a right-angle shrouded banana plug that reduces strain on the instrument jack and helps keep the cable routed neatly in tight panels. The black and red colour coding prevents polarity mistakes during fault finding.

Questions about this item
What does the 1000 VAC rating mean when I am actually measuring with these leads?
The leads are rated for CAT II 1000 V without the protective cap and CAT III 1000 V with the cap fitted, so the measurement category depends on whether the cap is installed.
How does the shrouded banana plug interface limit what I can connect to?
The right-angle shrouded banana plugs fit any multimeter, clamp meter or test instrument that accepts a standard shrouded banana jack, and the shroud prevents accidental contact with live parts.
What clearance do I need for the 48-inch leads and right-angle plugs to fit in my workspace?
Each lead is 48 inches long and terminates in a right-angle shrouded plug, so allow enough depth behind the instrument for the angled connector to seat fully without strain.
