A6303 & A6303XL Instructions 1

Getting Started

This section covers the installation and operation of the A6303 & A6303XL

current probes.

The A6303 is a DC to 15 MHz current probe designed for use with the AM503

family of current probe amplifiers and the 11A16 plug-in. The A6303 can

measure currents to 100 A (DC + peak AC), and up to 500 A peak current (while

not exceeding the amp-second rating).

The A6303XL is an extended length cable version of the A6303. It offers the

same current ranges as the A6303 with a diminished frequency range of DC to

10 MHz. The A6303XL can only be used with the AM503B and AM5030, and

will not be recognized by other current probe amplifiers.

Please refer to the amplifier documentation for verification procedures, adjust-

ments, and additional specifications.

If you need assistance using your probe, please call our Customer Support Center

at 1-800-TEK-WIDE (1-800-835-9433). If you are outside the United States or

Canada, please contact your nearest Tektronix Service Center.

Probe Installation

To connect a current probe to the Amplifier input connector, align the tab of the

probe connector with the slot in the Amplifier INPUT connector as shown in

Figure 1(a). Align the dot on the probe connector with the groove opening of the

input connector as shown in Figure 1(b). Push the probe connector in while

twisting the barrel clockwise to lock the connector.

CAUTION. Handle current probes with care. Do not drop a probe or subject it to

impact, or the core may crack. Do not connect or disconnect a current probe

while the probe is clamped around a live conductor or while the Amplifier is

powered on, or the probe may suffer electrical damage.

Figure 1: Connecting a Current Probe to the Amplifier

Operating the Current Probe Slide

Each current probe has a slide that opens and closes the probe jaw. This allows

you to clamp the probe around a conductor under test. The slide must be locked

to accurately measure current or to degauss the probe. If a probe is unlocked, the

PROBE OPEN indicator on the Amplifier will light.

WARNING. When the probe slides are open, the exposed ferrite core pieces are

not insulated.

To avoid injury or equipment damage, remove power from an uninsulated wire

before clamping the current probe around it.

Never disconnect the probe from the Amplifier when the probe is connected to a

live conductor.

Allow your hands to contact the probe handle and lock only.

Figure 2 illustrates the slide operation of the probe. To open the probe, press the

bottom of the lock button and squeeze the handle until the core is open. To lock

the probe, release the squeeze handle and press the top of the lock button.
