  • Product typeTest Probes & Leads
  • CAT III 1000 V safety rating protects during high-energy measurements
  • 48 in silicone-insulated leads reach across wide workspaces
  • 10 A current capacity handles demanding circuit tests
  • Beryllium copper banana springs give low contact resistance over many cycles
  • 18 AWG high-strand wire stays flexible in cold or tight spots

What these test leads are

Pomona Electronics 5908A test leads come as a black and red pair measuring 48 inches. They connect any multimeter, clamp meter or test instrument that accepts a standard shrouded banana plug. Rated for 1000 V CAT III and 10 A maximum current, they suit technicians and electricians working on live circuits within those limits.

Check your instrument before ordering

Verify that your meter or clamp accepts a straight shrouded banana plug for the meter connection. The leads use 18 AWG silicone-insulated wire with a high strand count, so ensure the probe tips match the terminals you intend to probe. No other connector type is supported by this set.

Behaviour under sustained load

The multi-leaf banana spring is beryllium copper with nickel plating, designed for extended insertion cycle life and low contact resistance during repeated use. Silicone insulation remains flexible over long sessions, and the 10 A rating applies continuously rather than only in short bursts.
