This product from Chauvin Arnoux is a set of magnetic test probes, specifically designed for voltage measurement in the electrical industry. The test probes serve as accessories for measuring instruments and enable safe and precise measurement on electrical installations in categories CAT III and CAT IV. The magnetic probe ensures a stable connection to the measurement object, simplifying handling and increasing measurement accuracy. The probes are designed for use in professional environments where high safety requirements apply.
Magnetic test probes are the key feature of this product. They consist of a magnetic contact that attaches to metallic surfaces to establish a secure connection. This reduces the risk of contact loss during measurement, especially when working in moving or rough environments. The probes are designed for voltage measurements and are not suitable for current measurements.
Voltage measurement is the primary function. The test probes are certified for a voltage range of 1000 V in CAT III installations and 600 V in CAT IV installations. These categories refer to the safety classification of electrical installations according to international standards, with CAT IV representing the highest hazard level, for example, when measuring on power supply networks. Certification for these categories makes the probes suitable for installations, maintenance work, and testing in the electrical industry.
Diameter of the test probe is 6.6 mm, providing sufficient contact surface for a secure measurement. The
socket Ø 4 mm allows connection to standard measuring instruments equipped with a 4-mm socket. This ensures broad compatibility with common multimeters and other measuring instruments used in the trade.
Rated current is 4 A. This value refers to the maximum current load the probes can handle, which must not be exceeded during measurement. The probes are not designed for measuring high currents, but exclusively for voltage measurements.
The test probes are designed for use in professional applications, particularly for the installation, maintenance, and testing of electrical installations. They are suitable for electricians, testing engineers, and technicians working in environments with high safety requirements. The magnetic connection facilitates work on difficult-to-access or moving contacts, such as switches or terminals in distribution boards.
Installation is done by simply inserting into the 4-mm socket of the measuring instrument. The magnetic probe is placed directly onto the conductor material to be measured, creating a secure connection. No additional tools or aids are required. Handling is simple and does not require special training.
In operation, the test probes offer improved stability and precision, as the magnetic connection prevents the probe from slipping. This reduces the likelihood of errors during measurements, especially in rough or moving environments. The probes are robustly constructed to meet the demands of professional use.
