Module 5
Basic Measurement
Triaxial Probes
Guarded to within 2mm of tip
Single Triax Kelvin Triax
These probes are guarded within 2mm of the probe tip, ideal for low current applications. The
Kelvin triax probe is the ideal mate for the Kelvin triax cable. A third variation of these probes is a
Kelvin triax probe with only one probe. The Kelvin connection is made inside the probe holder.
This compromise eliminates most cable loss while making a single point contact.
