Introduction
The Teledyne LeCroy PP023 is a passive high impedance voltage
oscilloscope probe designed and calibrated for use with general purpose
oscilloscopes having an input impedance of 1 MΩ and can be compensated
for use with instruments having an input capacitance between 10 to 20 pF.
It is compatible with oscilloscopes that automatically detect probe
attenuation and adjust their readout accordingly.

Definitions (per EN 61010-031)
1) Measurement Category I (CAT I) refers to measurements performed on circuits not directly
connected to mains.
2) Measurement Category II (CAT II) refers to measurements performed on circuits directly
connected to the low-voltage installation.
3) Pollution Degree 2 refers to an operating environment where normally only dry, non-conductive
pollution occurs. Temporary conductivity caused by condensation must be expected.
