The Teledyne LeCroy CP030-3M is an AC/DC current probe that measures continuous currents up to 30 A RMS and peak currents to 50 A with a 10 MHz bandwidth. This non-invasive probe uses Hall effect and transformer technology to acquire current waveforms without breaking circuits or inserting shunts, accommodating conductors up to 5 mm diameter. The 3 meter cable connects via ProBus directly to compatible Teledyne LeCroy oscilloscopes, eliminating the need for external power supplies or signal conditioning.
