The Kelvin clip 5Z is a robust two-pole measuring clip connecting to cables, e.g. cable ends of cable spools, connecting and winding pins (transformers), as well as bolted connections and busbars in power engineering applications. It is designed for heavy-duty practical service.
With 2 Kelvin clips, a 4-pole-contact is possible to determine the electrical resistance of the test object according to Kelvin independent of the resistance values of the feed cables, provided that the measuring instrument is designed accordingly.
Of course, the Kelvin clip is not only suitable for low resistance measurement, it can generally be used for all contacting. For example, it is used in our transformer measuring system MRC7200 for ratio, phase and resistance measurements. Different Kelvin clip designs are available, which mainly differ with regard to the size, the length and the type of the connected cable as well the plug used.
