Pollution degree
descriptions
A measure of the contaminants that could occur in the environment around
and within a product. Typically the internal environment inside a product is
considered to be the same as the external. Products should be used only in the
environment for which they are rated.
Pollution degree 1. No pollution or only dry, nonconductive pollution occurs.
Products in this category are generally encapsulated, hermetically sealed, or
locat
ed in clean rooms.
Pollution degree 2. Normally only dry, nonconductive pollution occurs.
Occa
sionally a temporary conductivity that is caused by condensation must
be expected. This location is a typical ofce/home environment. Temporary
condensation occurs only when the product is out of service.
Pollution degree 3. Conductive pollution, or dry, nonconductive pollution
that becomes conductive due to condensation. These are sheltered locations
where neither temperature nor humidity is controlled. The area is protected
from direct sunshine, rain, or direct wind.
Pollution degree 4. Pollution that generates persistent conductivity through
conductive dust, rain, or snow. Typical outdoor locations.
Pollution degree rating

Probe Safety
Check and observe probe ratings before using probes.
A guard around the TPP0051, TPP0101, or TPP0201 probe body provides a nger
barrier for protection from electric shock.
Finger guard
WARNING. To avoid electric shock when using the probe, keep ngers behind
the guard on the probe body.
To avoid electric shock while using the probe, do not touch metallic portions of
the probe head while it is connected to a voltage source.
Connect the probe to the oscilloscope, and connect the ground terminal to ground
before you take any measurements.

Getting Started
If you change th
e Attenuation switch on a P2220 probe, you also need to change
the oscilloscope Attenuation option to match. Switch settings are 1X and 10X.
Attenuation switch
NOTE. When the Attenuation switch is set to 1X, the P2220 probe limits the
bandwidth of the oscilloscope to 6 MHz. To use the full bandwidth of the
oscilloscope, be sure to set the switch to 10X.
Current P
robe Scaling
Current probes provide a voltage signal proportional to the current. You need to
set the oscilloscope to match the scale of your current probe. The default scale is
10 A/V.
For example, to set the scale for a current probe connected to channel 1, push the
1 Prob
e Current Scale option, and select an appropriate value.
Self Calibration
The s
elf calibration routine lets you optimize the oscilloscope signal path for
maximum measurement accuracy. You can run the routine at any time but you
should always run the routine if the ambient temperature changes by 5 °C (9 °F)
or more. The routine takes about two minutes.
For accurate calibration, power on the oscilloscope and wait twenty minutes to
ensure it is warmed up.
To compensate the signal path, disconnect any probes or cables from the input
connectors. Then, access the Utility Do Self Cal option, and follow the
directions on the screen.
