The live lead has broke plus I've lost one of the insulated screw on croc clips which I found useful. The last set I got about 10 yrs ago from Maplin , I think they were universal, the sales guy sorted me out anyway.
My 'not sure' centres around the male pins on the meter end of the leads, my broke ones are springy so will cope with varying ports (see pic). Maybe the ports are all the same on all DMM units? And the springy bit is just to secure them snuggly?

I saw those but they look a bit nasty at that price, no mention, that I can see, of current capacity or cable lengths.
I'm no pro but I don't want meltdown and shocks, I'm dangerous enough:rolleyes::D
 
I'd simply get a better DMM. Those leads are from an old, cheap, low quality, DMM. You could get a much better DMM for just a few £ more than a pair of leads for that DMM will cost.
