Detailed Product Overview
The HIOKI VT1005 is a high-precision AC/DC high-voltage divider for measuring signals up to 5 kVrms. It scales input voltage by a fixed 1000:1 ratio and outputs a clean, scaled-down signal via BNC for direct connection to power analyzers, memory recorders, oscilloscopes, or any other instrument with a BNC input.

It scales input voltage by a fixed 1000:1 ratio and outputs a clean, scaled-down signal via BNC for direct connection to power analyzers, memory recorders, oscilloscopes, or any other instrument with a BNC input.
The VT1005 delivers outstanding accuracy across a wide frequency range: ±0.08% for DC
and ±0.04% at 50/60 Hz, with amplitude flatness of ±0.1% up to 200 kHz and phase accuracy of ±0.1° up to 500 kHz. This wide and flat frequency response enables precise
power analysis even in fast-switching systems with significant harmonic content, supporting
measurements up to 4 MHz (–3 dB).
Comparison of an AC/DC high voltage divider with differential probes
Compared to traditional high-voltage differential probes, the HIOKI VT1005 High Voltage Divider delivers clear
performance advantages. Most differential probes offer around 2% amplitude accuracy and
typically do not specify phase accuracy. These features make them unsuitable for precise
power measurement, particularly in systems deploying Pulse Width Modulation (PWM), such
as high voltage DC/DC converters and traction drive inverters. The VT1005 is engineered for
high-accuracy AC/DC voltage measurement with well-defined phase and amplitude
specifications, making it the right choice for such demanding applications.
Passive architecture for stable measurement results
The passive architecture of the VT1005 eliminates issues commonly associated with active
differential probes, such as probe loading, thermal drift, and active circuit noise. This results
in cleaner signals, higher measurement accuracy and long-term stability, even at higher
frequencies.
The VT1005 also features a high common-mode rejection ratio of 80 dB at 100 kHz, allowing
it to maintain measurement integrity even in electromagnetically noisy environments such as
inverter test benches or industrial power systems.
Thanks to its accuracy, frequency response, and noise immunity, the VT1005 is an essential
tool for measuring losses in high-voltage transformers and inductors, evaluating the
efficiency of SiC/GaN-based power electronics, and qualifying wireless power transfer (WPT)
systems.
