Professional High Voltage Measurement for Multimeters

The Testec TT-HVP 40 is a precision-engineered high voltage passive probe designed specifically for safe measurement of extreme voltages using standard digital multimeters. This probe extends your multimeter's measurement capability to 40kV DC and 28kV AC RMS, making it indispensable for power supply testing, CRT television servicing, and industrial high voltage diagnostics.

Resistive Divider Technology

Built around a proven 1000:1 resistive divider circuit, the TT-HVP 40 uses high-precision 1000MΩ input resistance to minimise circuit loading whilst maintaining measurement accuracy. When connected to 10MΩ multimeters, the probe provides a 1000:1 division ratio. For 1MΩ input impedance instruments, the ratio becomes 2000:1, offering versatility across different measurement equipment.

Key Specifications:
Parameter Value Notes
Max DC Input 40kV ±5% accuracy (1-20kV), ±6% (20-40kV)
Max AC Input 28kV RMS 0-300Hz, ±5% at 60Hz
Input Resistance 1000MΩ Minimal circuit loading
Temperature Coefficient <200ppm/°C Excellent thermal stability

Safety Features

Safety is paramount in high voltage measurement. The TT-HVP 40 incorporates multiple protective features including CAT I overvoltage protection, reinforced insulation, and a mandatory grounding connection via the supplied earth clip. The probe body features robust environmental ratings, operating from 0°C to +50°C and withstanding humidity up to 80% at 40°C.

Important: This probe is rated for CAT I (energy-limited circuits) only. Suitable for applications such as power supply testing, CRT servicing, and laboratory measurements. Not suitable for mains distribution or power line measurements.

Wiring Quick-Start

Connection is straightforward using standard 4mm banana plugs:
