Some time ago I bought a TMK TEM-1555B which is in G.W.O. c/w carrying case and instruction booklet. However there were no test leads or probes with it. On the rare occasions I've used this instrument since, it has been with a pair of leads/probes with spring-loaded tips, and internal fuses I bought from CPC. Whilst these are adequately rated, and O.K., I've often wondered what leads & probes would have been supplied new with this insulation tester, which measures up to 200 Megohms @ 500vDC, and 500vAC @ 40-70Hz. Does anyone know the answer to that question?
