It's not so much that there is a clip named Kelvin, but that there's
a thing called a Kelvin connection, in which you drive the DUT with
one pair of wires, but sense voltage with a separate pair. This
connection eliminates errors due to voltage drop along the
inevitable resistance/impedance of the driving pair.

thanks for all answers! I didn't know that the name of those
clips was "kelvin".
BTW i checked digikey for them and was shocked by their prices!
a set of 2 clips cabled to banana plugs was about 200€!!!
