Kelvin clips provide accurate measurements right at the contact points of a component or circuit. Each side of the clip is electrically insulated from the other, so when you grip a component the two jaw contacts make independent connections — ideal for four-wire (Kelvin) sensing that eliminates lead resistance from your readings.
Key Features
- Insulated Jaws – Each side electrically isolated for true four-wire measurement
- Screw-Mounted Contacts – Two jaw contacts screwed into a plastic clip body
- Solder-Ready – Attach your own wires by soldering directly to the jaw contacts
- In-Circuit Use – Can also be used to clip into live circuits
Ideal For
- Precision resistance and impedance measurements
- Component testing and characterisation
- Four-wire Kelvin sensing setups
Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- Impedance
- Impedance is the total opposition a component or circuit presents to alternating current, measured in ohms, combining resistance with frequency-dependent reactance. It appears in many contexts, such as matching a speaker's impedance (for example 4 ohm or 8 ohm) to an amplifier or the input and output impedance of signal circuits, and a correct match helps avoid weak signals, distortion or damage.
