You mean changing the test leads can change the readings?
For most measurements - not really.
For these almost-zero resistance measurements - it can. Not
"will", but "can".
The meter is measuring the resistance between the meter terminals. So
the leads are included in the measurement.
Remember what I said about every foot of wire adding a tiny bit of
resistance? So a pair of 3 ft leads will have a bit more
resistance than a pair of 2 ft leads. 20 AWG wire will have a
tiny bit more resistance than 16 AWG leads.
