Hi
i just bought a megger mft1720 and i noticed it has different leads, when you take the gs38 probes off the end your left with the 'plug in type' but it doesnt fit into my socket and see adaptor. It goes in but doesnt make a connection?! It looks like it wont go in far enough because it has a shroud on it unlike all other leads. The switched lead that comes with it is just like the old ones with the bigger exposed end on that fits in the adaptor no problems. Its really annoying because i cant do R1+R2 on sockets without taking the fronts off. It does come with another plug in lead but its not really convenient plugging it in and taking out all the time plus i would have to keep zeroing it out. Does anyone else have a similar problem? or do i have duff leads? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards
Michael
