Getting Started
CAUTION.
not apply a voltage that is in excess of 1,000 V
input and ground or more than 1,300 V (DC + peak AC) between the two
inputs. This voltage rating applies to both 1/50 and 1/500 settings.
Functional Check
To make a simple functional check of the P5200 probe, select a source
that supplies AC line voltage and use the following procedure. This
procedure verifies a majority of the circuitry within the probe. For a
complete performance verification, refer to Performance Verification
section. (See page 21.)
1.
Use the installation procedure to connect the output of the P5200
probe to a measurement instrument. (See page 5, Installation.)
2.
Connect the inputs, set the range, and perform the check as each
line of the following table indicates.
