Dick it is all in trying to get the last little bit of accuracy out of the meter. 1000 NPLC and or math stat would do better than messing with the leads... All this gets into the law of diminishing returns. 1 ohm test lead in series with a 10Meg input resistance that only come into play on the 2 upper ranges will induce an error of 0.1 ppm.
