TPH1000 Probe Holder
The TPH1000 probe holder is a probe accessory
that allows you to probe circuits and test points
hands-free, without using hook clips or tape to
keep the probe in contact with your circuit.
Probe Grips
Two probe grips are molded into the probe,
14 mm (0.55 in) and 9 mm (0.35 in) in diameter.
Use the smaller grip with Tektronix passive
probes, for example, the P6139B and P5050B.
Use the larger grip with Tektronix high voltage
probes like the P5100A and P5122.
To use the holder, insert the cable in the grip
opening and th
CAUTION. Do not pull the probe by the
cable; you may damage the probe. Always
insert and remove probes by gripping the
handheld section of the probe.
Position the base of the probe holder on your
circuit where it can maintain stability while
contacting the test point.

The weight of the probe holder keeps the probe in
contact with your circuit, and the non-skid base
keeps the probe holder in place. The probe holder
is insulated to prevent short-circuits, and the two
probe grip areas accept a wide variety of probes.

Safety Informat
ion
Connect and Disconnect Properly. Connect the
probe output to t
he measurement instrument
before connecting the probe to the circuit under
test. Disconne
ct the probe input and the probe
reference lead from the circuit under test before
disconnecting
the probe from the measurement
instrument.
Avoid Electric Shock. To avoid injury or loss
of life, do not c
onnect or disconnect probes or
test leads while they are connected to a voltage
source.
