Agilent Technologies 34136A 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 34136A High Voltage Probe is an accessory to be used with analog or digital
multimeters having an input resistance of 10 M
Ω ( ±1%) .
The Agilent Technologies 34136A is a
1000:1 divider which extends a voltmeter’s measurement capability to 40 kV dc/ 28 kV rms ac.
Specifications
Other Characteristics
AC output derates with frequency to
-3db at 300 Hz. The graph at the right
shows typical AC accuracy.
Actual AC accuracy varies with the
amount of shunted input capacitance.
