Purpose and User
The Pintech HVP-50 high voltage probe extends a multimeter range to 50kV DC or 35kV AC at 50 or 60 Hz. It is built for technicians who need to verify high voltage signals in industrial, automotive or laboratory environments. The 1000:1 attenuation ratio keeps the operator and the meter at safe voltage levels. CE certification confirms compliance with European safety requirements.
Thermals Noise and Power
The probe presents a 500 MΩ input impedance with a ±2 % tolerance, drawing a maximum loading current of 0.1 mA at the full 50 kV DC rating. Maximum loading power is rated at 5 watt, so self-heating stays low during normal measurements. A 90 cm ground lead and a 100 cm output cable provide flexible positioning without adding audible noise or active cooling.
Sustained Load Behaviour
Accuracy holds at ±1 % up to 40 kV DC and ±2 % up to the 50 kV DC limit. For AC at 50 to 60 Hz the tolerance is ±2 % to 28 kV and ±3 % to 35 kV. The 260 g probe maintains these figures over extended test sessions without drift caused by thermal buildup. Users who require continuous monitoring beyond the stated voltage or frequency range should select a different instrument.

Questions about this item
How do I connect the HVP-50 to my multimeter and what is the common mistake with the ground lead?
Attach the 100 cm output cable to the multimeter voltage input and secure the 90 cm ground wire to a solid earth point before applying high voltage; the step often missed is connecting ground first.
Which part of the probe will wear out and need replacement after repeated high-voltage use?
The probe tip and internal resistor string can degrade from sustained 50 kV DC or 35 kV AC stress; no user-serviceable parts are listed, so the entire unit is replaced when accuracy drifts beyond ±1 % at 40 kV or ±3 % at 35 kV AC.
At what continuous voltage does the HVP-50 reach its thermal or loading limit first?
The 5 W maximum loading power at 0.1 mA and 500 MΩ input impedance is the limiting factor; sustained operation near 50 kV DC or 35 kV AC will hit this thermal ceiling before the 1000:1 attenuation ratio is affected.
