Agilent Technologies N2771A 15 kV High Voltage
Probe
W A R N I N G
This high voltage probe is designed to prevent accidental shock to the operator when properly
used. This operating note must be read and understood prior to using the probe. Improper
procedures or incorrect analysis of the measurement situation can result in serious shock.
General Information
The Agilent Technologies N2771A High Voltage Divider Probe is an accessory to be used with analog
or digital oscilloscopes having input resistance of 1 M
Ω
(±1%) and nominal input capacitance between
6 and 20 pF. The Agilent Technologies N2771A is a 1000:1 divider which extends the voltage
measurement capability to 15 kV dc or 10 kV rms ac (30 kV peak).
