2 Using the Probe
1.
Connect the probe to the BNC input of the oscilloscope.
2.
Select the desired volts/division range on your oscilloscope.
3.
If possible, always turn the high voltage source off before
connecting or disconnecting the probe.
4.
Connect the divider probe ground lead (alligator clip) to a good
earth ground or reliable chassis ground.
5.
Before turning on the high voltage source, be certain the
operator is not touching any part of the device under test.
6.
Turn on the high voltage source.
7.
You will now be able to analyze the voltage waveform on your
oscilloscope.
8.
Turn off the high voltage source.
9.
Disconnect the High Voltage Probe from the high voltage source
BEFORE disconnecting the ground clip lead.
WARNING
Do not exceed 60 seconds of contact between this probe and any
circuit with voltages ≥8 kV DC, ≥5 kVrms AC, or ≥15 kVpk-pk AC. Wait
for 5 minutes between such measurements.
