Typical Electrical Characteristics

Typical characteristics describe parameters which do not have guaranteed
performance, however are representative of the average performance from a
sample of several probes. Tests for typical characteristics are not provided in the
Performance Verification Procedure

.

Rise Time:

< 7 ns

Slew Rate:

> 1.6 A/ns (sensitivity ≥ 1 A/div)

Insertion Impedance:

< 0.06 Ω at 5 MHz

Performance Verification

This procedure can be used to verify the warranted characteristics of the AP015
Current Probe.

The recommended calibration interval for the model AP015 Current Probe is one
year. The complete performance verification procedure should be performed as
the first step of annual calibration. Performance verification can be completed
without removing the instrument covers or exposing the user to hazardous
voltages. Test results can be recorded on a photocopy of the Test Record
provided at the end of this manual.

Adjustment should only be attempted if a parameter measured in the
Performance Verification Procedure is outside of the specification limits.
Adjustment should only be performed by qualified personnel.

Required Equipment

The following table lists the test equipment and accessories, or their equivalents,
that are required for performance verification of the AP015 Current Probe.
Because the input and output connector types may vary on different brands and
models of test instruments, additional adapters or cables may be required.
