INTRODUCTION
The ETS-Lindgren Bulk Current Injection Probe series is used to
inject RF current into conductors and cables of electrical and
electronic equipment undergoing susceptibility testing.
The Bulk Current Injection Probe provides a means of applying a
controlled RF stress level to an instrument under test (IUT)
through interconnecting cables or power cables without requiring a
direct connection to the conductor(s) of interest. The models in
this series are simply clamped around the test conductor which
then becomes a one turn secondary winding, with the current probe
forming the core and primary winding of an RF transformer. RF
energy can be injected onto single and multi-conductor cables,
grounding and bonding straps, outer conductors of shielding
conduits and coaxial cables, etc.
The bulk current injection probe series is especially designed to
provide minimum insertion loss over the following frequency
ranges:
Model Number Frequency Range Useful Range
95236-1 0.1 to 10 MHz 0.01 to 100 MHz
95242-1 2 to 400 MHz 2 to 400 MHz
95252-1 450 to 900 MHz 20 to 1000 MHz

Because of the high efficiency design, the injection probes can also
be used as very sensitive sensors.
