Building a high-voltage 1:1000 probe
TheHWcave
his video is about building a 1:1000 high voltage probe, mainly for my scope but also usable for multimeters. I considered publishing plans but then properly rated high voltage components are not easy to get and so I rather spent a bit more time on the design principles, so you can adopt the circuit to whatever component values you managed to get and of course what input impedance & capacitance your scope has.
WARNING:
If you build and use this probe, you do so at your own risk! High voltage can seriously hurt you and damage your equipment!
