Page 5: Safety Terms And Symbols
Do not overload; observe all ratings. To avoid electric shock or fire, do not connect the current probe to any wire that carries voltages or currents that exceed the ratings of the probe. Connect and disconnect properly. Connect the probe to the test instrument before connecting to the circuit/conductor being measured. -
Page 6: Product Overview
T3CP150-12: 150 Amps, 12 MHz T3CP500-5: 500 Amps, 5 MHz Teledyne Test Tools new T3CP series current probes are wide bandwidth DC/AC active current probes, featuring high bandwidth, fast and accurate waveform capture, measurement accuracy up to 1% and low circuit insertion loss. These probes can be used with any oscilloscope having a high- impedance BNC input. -
Page 7: Product Description
T3CP Product Description 1) Sensor Head The T3CP measurement clamp head where the DUT conductor is placed. The measurement clamp head contains a precision semi-conductor sensor that could be damaged by drastic changes of environmental temperature, external pressure, excessive vibration and shock. Please be careful whilst taking a measurement and using the probe. -
Page 8: Making Measurements
Before using the probe, check that the preparations described in Safe Probing have been undertaken. • Inspect the current probe, power supply and cable to ensure that there is no damage. If the current probe, power supply or cable are damaged please contact Teledyne LeCroy service centre to arrange repair. •... - Page 9 • Connect the power supply to probe and the power indicator will light. Select the appropriate measurement range using the Range Key. • Ensure that the probe sensor is NOT clamped around any conductors. Slide the probe’s Opening Lever into the LOCKED position as shown in Figure. Confirm that the sensor head is properly closed.

• Align the probe so that the probe’s current direction indication corresponds to the direction of current flow through the conductor to be measured, as shown below. Also, align the clamp so that the conductor is in the center of the sensor aperture. •... - Page 11 Before using the probe for the first time, verify that it operates normally to ensure that no damage has occurred during storage or shipping. If you find any damage, contact your dealer or a Teledyne LeCroy representative. • This device is not designed to be water or dust proof. To avoid damage, do not use it in a wet or dusty environment.

Page 12: Operating Method
• Continuous input of current exceeding the rated maximum or repeated activation of the safety function may result in damage to the probe. • The probe is rated for maximum continuous input. Use the probe at RMS current input levels that are within the rated continuous maximums.The maximum peak input is for a single pulse width of <10 μs. -
Page 13: Preparation Before Testing
• When the input current continuously surpasses the maximum input range, the probe sensor self- protection will be activated. Please discontinue the measurement and allow the T3CP probe to cool before making another measurement. Degauss and check the zero level after the probe has cooled and before resuming measurements. -
