Measure the hole in the plastic case of your meter. If it measures .312" get that size. If it measures .380" purchase that 767 series plug.
I've used the automotive J-hook to pierce up to 10 gauge insulation. Use Liquid tape clear to cover the hole.Dab a spootch a TINY SPECK droplet of liquid tape onto the test lead probe screw on alligator clamp threads. The BASE of the threads. This stops the clip from unscrewing when you wish it not to...
Oh yeah I forgot - Oldaker's test lead plugs are also stainless steel.
I have made dozens of chassis ground extension wires. Sixteen gauge. For under dash work. Connect one soldered terminal end to a good ground, run the other end to a convenient point, strip and solder up an inch of stripped conductor then GOOP this to somewhere easy to clip onto. Especially useful for Class A rigs. I use a 1/4" ring terminal as a clip-to point. Finding a good ground inside a camper rig is also hard.
