Extract from GS38
(i) have finger barriers or are shaped to guard against inadvertent hand contact with the live conductors under test;
(ii) are insulated to leave an exposed metal tip not exceeding 4 mm measured across any surface of the tip. Where practicable it is strongly recommended that this is reduced to 2 mm or less, or that spring loaded retractable screened probes are used;

Nothing a bit of insulation tape won't sort out!

Totally missed the fact it called it a multifunction tester, probably blinded by the level of cheapness that thing shows.

And it is overpriced slightly, they have the next model up in our pound shop and this has the bluetooth option too

 

[Ducksy]

The model in my pound shop comes with a packet of 87 super glues all of which are filled to 5% capacity of the tube and have gone hard.

Cheap tools = cheap Spark =Cheap work IMHO..

Use one of these..
