Magnetically coupled electrical test lead

An electrical test lead, comprising:

• an insulated electrical cable having a proximal end and a distal end;
• an electrical connector disposed at the proximal end of the cable
• an electrically conductive magnetic probe disposed at the distal end;
• and
• an additional electrical test lead component having a proximal end and a distal end, the proximal end of the additional electrical test lead component being magnetically attached and electrically connected to the electrically conductive magnetic probe and extending therefrom, and the distal end of the additional electrical test lead component having a non-magnetic test probe to electrically connect to a test point of a piece of equipment to be tested.
