Description

High currents are hard to measure without changing the circuit. The CP5005 solves this with a clamp-on design: open the 20 mm jaw, close it around the conductor, and read the current on your oscilloscope. It handles up to 500 Arms, with peaks up to 750 Apk.

This is the top current model in Micsig's CP series. It is aimed at engineers working on EV motor drives, inverters and industrial power supplies, where both steady-state and switching currents matter.

What's inside

  • Up to 500 Arms continuous: Peak input up to 750 Apk. No other CP-series probe goes higher.
  • Large 20 mm jaw: Fits around bus bars and phase cables.
  • Switchable ranges: 75 A at 1 V/10 A (10X), or 500 A at 1 V/100 A (100X).
  • Fast enough for switching edges: 5 MHz bandwidth and a rise time of ≤70 ns.
  • Accurate to ±1%: At DC and in the 45–66 Hz band.
  • Resolves small currents: Measures down to 10 mA. Noise below 2.2 mArms on the 75 A range.
  • Degauss and auto-zero: Both done with one button press.
  • Built-in warnings: Overload indicator and over-current alarm.
  • BNC connection: According to Micsig, it works with oscilloscopes of any brand.

  • Jaw size: 20 mm
  • Output: BNC
  • Functions: Degauss/auto-zero (one button), overload indicator, over-current alarm

Why engineers choose it

  • Measure in place: Leave the wiring as it is. There is no need to insert a shunt or disconnect a conductor.
  • Detail and headroom in one tool: The 75 A range keeps noise low for finer signals. The 500 A range captures high peaks and transients.
  • See the full current: AC/DC coupling shows the DC component and the switching ripple on the same trace.
  • No new oscilloscope needed: Plug the BNC output into the scope already on your bench.
  • Part of a wider Micsig setup: Add the 150 MHz CP1503B and a Micsig high-resolution oscilloscope to measure anything from 1 mA to 500 Arms.
