Default Multimeter leads

I have a "Precision Gold" PG 017 multi-meter that came with two probes (red and black) with hard points on the ends.


Now though I need probes with grips to hold small wires.
When looking at the adverts, I cannot tell whether the plugs will fit the PG 017.


Can anyone advise?


My Maplin Precision Gold (long since dead) used the same leads plug as my
Fluke. Most half decent DVMs use the same (shrouded banana plugs). But the
Maplin one had screw on crock clips which fitted over the prongs for
gripping wires.

Have a look on Ebay to see what's around. Ask the seller if they are
guaranteed to fit.
