The '''Tektronix P6015''' is a 1000× high-voltage probe usable up to 20 kV (40 kV peak pulse). | The '''Tektronix P6015''' is a 1000× high-voltage probe usable up to 20 kV (40 kV peak pulse). | ||
It can be operated with or without dielectric filling but without this filling, the maximum voltage is reduced to 13 kV (18 kV peak), similar to the [[P6013]] predecessor model. The original filling material, [[wikipedia: 1,2-Dichlorotetrafluoroethane|Freon-114 aka Fluorocarbon 114 (R-114, CFC-114)]], is no longer available due to its [[wikipedia:Montreal Protocol|ozone-depleting properties]]. | It can be operated with or without dielectric filling but without this filling, the maximum voltage is reduced to 13 kV (18 kV peak), similar to the [[P6013]] predecessor model. | ||

The | The P6015 has a compensating circuit at the scope end of the cable with multiple adjustable RC constants, which was available with [[PL-259]] or [[BNC]] plugs on the scope side (termination box part numbers 015-039/015-0039-00 and 015-049/015-0049-00, respectively). | ||
