Maximum Input Limits - Tektronix P5210 Instructions Manual

Operating Basics
If you need to use the probe within the risk area for RF burn, turn
power off to the source before connecting or disconnecting the probe
leads. Do not handle the input leads while the circuit is active.

Maximum Input Limits

To prevent damage to the probe, you must observe both the peak and
RMS ratings. (The rating for DC voltage is the same as the rating for
RMS voltage.) You must also observe the ratings between the
differential inputs and between each input and earth ground.
CAUTION. To avoid damaging the input circuitry of the P5210, do not
apply voltage of more than 2,200 V
and earth ground or more than 4,400 V
inputs. In addition, the peak voltage must be less than 5,600 V
(DC + peak AC) between the inputs.
Above 1.5 MHz, the voltage limit decreases as frequency increases.
See Figure 2. The input limit applies to both the 100X and 1,000X
settings.
