OVERVIEW

5. It is now possible to monitor the current
waveform. The output rate of the GCP-530 or
GCP is 0.1 V/A. The current sensitivity can be
derived from the voltage sensitivity of the
waveform measurement instrument. For
example, if the voltage sensitivity is
10mV/division, the current sensitivity is
100mA/division.
NOTE
• When using the GCP-530 or GCP-1030, note that
two current probes may not be used
simultaneously with the GCP-425P POWER
SUPPLY, depending on the current to be
measured.
• The current consumption of current probes
depends on the current to be measured. Confirm
that the total current consumption of the current
probes do not exceed the rated output current of
the GCP-425P. See Fig. 1.
