Voltage Probe  
 
The voltage probe function is used to perform 
conducted emissions pretesting of a DUT. The 
unique advantage of this function is that the 
conducted emissions pretest can be performed 
without the need of a LISN. 
This function is only to be used with the GW 
Instek EMI Voltage Probe (GW Instek part 
number PR-01).  
To perform this test, touch the voltage probe to 
the Line, Neutral or Ground lines of the DUT’s 
input power. The power must be on when this 
test is performed. For safety purposes a power 
plug adapter with a pass-through should be 
used.

When testing the voltage 
probe on a line input, a 
power plug adapter with a 
pass-through to the Line, 
Neutral or Ground lines 
should be used. This 
adapter will allow you to 
safely test the input power 
line. This is not supplied by
