The Tektronix P6015A is a 1000:1 passive high-voltage probe that extends oscilloscope measurement capability to hazardous voltage levels. Engineered for DC voltages to 20 kV and transient peaks to 40 kV, it delivers the bandwidth and input impedance required for power electronics characterization while maintaining signal fidelity across fast edges. The probe uses a permanently sealed silicone dielectric, eliminating maintenance and ensuring consistent performance in field conditions.
