Why there is a GUARD terminal exposed? What else can you plug into this black little box?

[@BadDogElectronics]

The Guard terminal is used to prevent capacitive coupling. It is in essence acts as shield for the two (4) terminals. You can plug in any capacitor, inductor, or resistor (within it's spec range) to be measured with a "high" degree of accuracy.

Uni-t and ziboo or zeeboo sell a 4 wire Kelvin lead that fits the de 5000. The leads are pretty good quality too. Saved me from taking my oem attachment apart to do what you did in this video.

[@BadDogElectronics]

Good to know! Thanks for sharing.

Do not use the coax cable.

[@BadDogElectronics]

Thanks for adding that. Yeah, I'm sure some have tried to use coax. As you stated, not ideal.
