to pins4 and 5. (Pins 1 and 5 source current and pins 2 and 4 sense the poten-

tial.)If a shield wire is present it should be connected to pin 3.

A two-wireprobe can also be used with the 1502A. It is connected by attaching

one wireto both pins 1 and 2 of the plug and the other wire to both pins 4 and

5. If a shieldwire is present it should be connected to pin 3. Accuracy may be

significantlydegraded using a two-wire connection because of lead resistance.
