The Tektronix P6022 is an AC current probe that enables non-intrusive measurement of AC current waveforms without circuit interruption. Engineered for wide bandwidth operation across frequencies from DC to 500 kHz, the probe delivers precise current analysis with a nominal output of 10 mV/A and accuracy of ±2% of reading plus 0.5 A at 50 Hz. Its frequency response scales dynamically with measurement current: 20 kHz at 150 A peak, 50 kHz at 50 A peak, 100 kHz at 20 A peak, and 500 kHz at 10 A peak. The P6022 accommodates conductors up to 3.5 cm diameter with a jaw opening of 3.6 cm, making it suitable for diverse industrial and bench-top applications.
