Description
Fuse extension leads are a simple accessory that can save you valuable time.
Fuse extension leads are quick and easy to use: simply remove the fuse (of the circuit you wish to test) from your fusebox and replace it with a fuse extension lead. Now insert the fuse into the extension lead. To measure the current drawn, just connect your current clamp to the extension lead.
4 fuse extension leads are supplied, allowing you to use the leads with ATC /ATO, Mini, JCASE, and Maxi style fuses.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do fuse extension leads work?
You replace a vehicle fuse with the matching fuse extension lead, which passes the circuit through a loop of wire. Clamping a current clamp around this loop lets you measure the circuit current non-invasively without disconnecting anything or modifying the wiring.
Which fuse sizes are included?
The kit includes extension leads for the most common automotive fuse sizes: mini blade, standard blade, and maxi blade. This covers the vast majority of fuse boxes in modern vehicles.
Do I need a current clamp?
Yes. The fuse extension leads are designed to be used with a PicoBNC+ current clamp (60A or 2000A) and your PicoScope. Details at picoauto.com.
