Socket adaptor

[Carlosfandango]

Can anyone recommend a good socket adaptor for doing r1+r2 readings etc? I bought a kewtech one but it doesn't work with my megger 1720 leads unless you wiggle them about and even then it's unreliable!

could that not be because your old leads were worn? it annoys me that with the new leads you cannot pull off the croc clip and use the probe, as you have to pull the croc clip off and then go and get the probe bit and stick that on. and they don't work with lightmates, R2 lads or socket adapters. what was wrong with the old ones...

They were only a year old and had been like that from new. It is annoying though that the ends have to be juggled all the time.
Don't need a socket adaptor, as there is a made-up Megger lead for that included, Also, as already mentioned, if you turn the leads around then they work with Lightmates.
