The Fluke TL175 TwistGuard Test Leads set the standard for electrical safety and durability. The patented TwistGuard extendable tip shroud meets the highest electrical safety requirements, reducing tip exposure while maintaining the versatility needed for most measurements. The new WearGuard lead wire wear indication system uses a two-layer silicone insulation design — when leads are nicked, scuffed, or damaged, the inner contrasting color is exposed to signal that replacement is needed. Double-insulated silicone leads withstand high temperatures and remain flexible in cold conditions. Extra-heavy duty strain relief on both ends has been tested beyond 30,000 bends without failure.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the TwistGuard tip shroud?
The TwistGuard is a patented extendable tip shroud that reduces the amount of exposed probe tip during measurements, meeting the highest electrical safety requirements. You can extend or retract the shroud to adjust tip exposure for different measurement scenarios.
What does WearGuard wear indication do?
WearGuard is a two-layer silicone insulation system. The inner layer is a contrasting color — if the outer insulation is nicked, scuffed, or damaged, the inner color becomes visible, giving you a clear visual signal that the leads need to be replaced before they become a safety hazard.
What instruments are these leads compatible with?
The TL175 uses universal 4mm shrouded banana plugs, making them compatible with all instruments that accept standard 4mm shrouded banana plugs, including most Fluke multimeters and clamp meters.
What safety category rating do these leads carry?
The Fluke TL175 is rated CAT II 1000V, CAT III 1000V, and CAT IV 600V, making them suitable for a wide range of electrical measurement applications from residential to industrial environments.
