Functional Check
To make a simple functional check of the P5205 probe, selec t a
source that supplies AC line voltage and use the following
procedure. This procedure verifies a majority of the circuitry within
the probe. For a complete performance verification, refe r to the
Performance Verification section starting on page 27.
1. Use the installation procedure starting on page 6 to connec t t he
output of the P5205 probe to a measurement instrument.
2. Connect the inputs, set the range, and perform the check as each
line of Table 1, below, indicates.
