  • Patent number: 4223265
    Abstract: A probe adapted for selectively measuring either symmetrical or asymmetrical interference voltages or interference voltages between terminal and ground and utilizing first and second transformers having interconnected primary windings and tightly magnetically coupled secondary windings connectible with the interference measuring set for optionally measuring either symmetrical or asymmetrical voltages or voltages against ground, is disclosed. When measuring a balanced (symmetrical) voltage the terminals of the first transformer primary winding are coupled to the opposite poles of the specimen under test. When measuring an unbalanced (asymmetrical) voltage or a voltage with respect to ground, both terminals of the first transformer winding are connected in common to the pole of the specimen under test. In an cases a single ground terminal of the probe is connected to the ground of the specimen under test.
