Page 7 - Introduction; This manual provides information on four subjects:

CT-1/CT-2 Current Transformer 1 Introduction The CT-1 and CT-2 are high-frequency, bidirectional current probes. The CT-1 isa 1 GHz current probe and the CT-2 is a 200 MHz current probe. Each currentprobe comes with a P6041 probe cable to allow you to connect directly to anoscilloscope to make measu...

Operation CT-1/CT-2 Current Transformer 7 Low Frequency Response The low-frequency response of the current transformer is proportional to theinductance of the transformer windings. A DC component in the current beingmeasured tends to reduce this inductance. Figures 2 and 3 show this effect in thefre...
