5KVPSet - 5k Voltage Probe (set of 3)


5KVPSet is a set of three voltage probes that allow direct connection to up to 5,000 Vrms 3 phase power.


Outputs from the probes connect directly to PowerSight analyzers, allowing complete analysis of medium voltage power systems up to 5KV. Includes soft shell case.


Summit Technology provides its model 5KVP voltage probes for connecting directly to 3 phase voltages up to 5 kilovolts for complete analysis.

Normally, professionals who wish to measure 4,160 volt lines need to locate an installed PT (potential transformer) and then connect to the low voltage output secondary of the PT. The PT ratio is entered into the PowerSight so that primary values are displayed. However, sometimes a convenient PT is not available or the measurement must bypass the PT to verify whether the metering circuit is correct.

The 5KVPSet allows direct connection between the primary voltage and to your PowerSight analyzer. The set comes in its own compact canvas carrying case.

Simply connect the outputs to your PowerSight analyzer and to ground. Enter a 100:1 input ratio into your PowerSight analyzer and then hook the probes onto the medium voltage.

The connection to the medium voltage is via a shepherd’s hook that has a 1/4 inch inside diameter.

The 5KV probes may also be purchased singly (order 5KVP).

Whenever possible, connect the probes to a de-energized circuit. First, connect the ground lead of each of the probes to a secure ground point.

The probes are used exclusively with the PowerSight® line of Energy Analyzers, manufactured by Summit Technology Inc.

Category Notes
Voltage Linearity: +/-1% over measurement range
Frequency Response: Attenuation of 1db from 50 to 900 Hz (i.e. measurements attenuated 11% at 900 Hz, which is 15th harmonic at 60Hz or 18th harmonic at 50Hz).
Probe Dimensions: 14.75 inches long. Maximum diameter is 3 inches at the safety ring, tapering down to ½ inch outside diameter at the hook.
Shepherd’s Hook Dimensions Connection hook has 1/4 inch inside diameter.
Fully Extended Length: From connectors to hook, each probe is 7 feet long.
Weight: Each probe weighs less than 1 pound.
Carrying Case: Zippered Cordura canvas, 19 x 10 x 5 inches.
Scale: For direct reading of actual voltage, set meter for 100:1 input ratio.
