The Tektronix P6022 service manual provides instructions for setting up and operating the P6022 Current Probe with a termination and an oscilloscope to measure alternating current waveforms, including details on probe sensitivity adjustments and proper connection techniques. It also offers troubleshooting tips such as ensuring the probe slider is fully engaged for accurate measurements and using ground clip leads to prevent waveform distortion.
Manual Overview
The Tektronix P6022 Current Probe, when used with the P6022 Termination and an oscilloscope, is designed to measure alternating current waveforms. For effective operation, the probe should be connected to an oscilloscope with a vertical amplifier input impedance of one megohm. The probe and termination include adjustments to optimize performance by matching the input characteristics of the vertical amplifier. The P6022 Termination features a sensitivity control slide switch that alters the sensitivity by a factor of ten, allowing for different measurement scales. For accurate measurements, the probe slider must be pushed forward to ensure complete contact with the transformer core. Ground clip leads are provided to ground the probe transformer shield, and the direction of conventional current flow is indicated on the probe for waveform deflection on the CRT. To minimize loading effects in critical circuits, it is recommended to clamp the probe at the low or ground end of a circuit.
Quick Issues Covered

Installation / Setup
The installation of the P6022 Current Probe requires an oscilloscope with a vertical amplifier input impedance of one megohm. First, connect the P6022 Termination to the vertical input of the oscilloscope, then connect the P6022 Current Probe to the termination. The probe and termination have adjustments to optimize performance by matching the input characteristics of the vertical amplifier. The probe slider, controlled by the thumb, opens and closes the transformer core around the conductor under test, which becomes the primary of the transformer. The slider should be pushed all the way forward to ensure complete contact with the transformer core. Ground clip leads are provided to ground the shield around the probe transformer, and the short ground clip lead should be used for high-frequency waveforms to avoid ringing.
Operation
The P6022 Current Probe, when used with a P6022 Termination and an oscilloscope, measures alternating current waveforms. To operate, connect the P6022 Termination to the oscilloscope’s vertical input, then connect the P6022 Current Probe to the termination. The oscilloscope should have a vertical amplifier input impedance of one megohm. The probe’s sensitivity can be adjusted using a slide switch on the termination, changing the sensitivity by a factor of ten. The probe slider, controlled by the thumb, opens and closes the transformer core around the conductor under test, which becomes the primary of the transformer when the core is closed. Ground clip leads are provided to ground the probe transformer shield, and the direction of conventional current flow is indicated by an arrow on the probe. To minimize loading effects, clamp the probe at the low or ground end of a circuit when possible.
