Q10. Can the 9173 FOUR-
TERMINAL LEADS be modified
to use banana plugs?
A10. This is possible only when used with the
3555.Precision assurance with the 3550 and
3551 is not given. The 9173 is available as a
special- order option with banana plugs.
Q11. The pin tip of the 9465 PIN-
TYPE LEADS has become
damaged. Is it possible to
replace the pin tip only?
A11 The measurement leads cannot be repaired.
A new lead must be purchased. 3550 series

Q12. What are the usage limitations
of the 9287 CLIP- TYPE LEADS
and 9467 LARGE CLIP TYPE
LEADS?
A12. The 9287 can only be used with the
3555.Because the 9287 has no barrier at the
clip section, measuring a UPS battery involves
a risk of electric shock and is therefore not
allowed with the 3550 and 3551.The 9467 can
be used with all models, but with the 3551,
measurement results will differ by about
15dgt.in the 3 m Ωrange, due to measurement
lead length.
Q13. Can the lead of the 9466
REMOTE CONTROL SWITCH
incorporated in the 9465 PIN-
TYPE LEADS?
A13. This is not possible. Internally, the
EXT.MEMO/EXT.HOLD and measurement
terminal wiring circuits are insulated, but if the
9466 lead is run together with the 9465 lead,
the 2.3 kV rms rating will no longer apply and
a risk of electric shock exists.
Q14. Can the zero adjustment board
also be used with the 9461 PIN-
TYPE LEADS? Can zero
adjustment be performed by
using a thick metal plate in place
of the zero adjustment board?
A14. The zero adjustment board can also be used
with the 9461.A thick metal plate cannot be
used in place of the zero adjustment board,
because the resistance of that plate would be
measured.
Q15. Can the 9465 PIN- TYPE
LEADS be used with the 3550?
A15. Yes, but not for temperature measurements.
Zero adjustment must be performed with the
zero adjustment board.
