I have found Fischer Custom Communication probes to be of the highest quality. I have found that with some other probes, significant E-field response is a problem, and you need to measure E-field response yourself. I have seen current probes with an E-field response as much as the intended H-field response!
Give me a call and I will walk you through a few ways of measuring E-field response of a current probe. Too much to type here. Apparently, many manufacturers of current probes do not know how to do this.

To validate a Surge Immunity Generator and CDN, the IEC 61000-4-5 standard refers to a "Current Probe" for measuring the Short-Circuit Current. I wish to buy one. Can anyone recommend a model and supplier/manufacturer of a current probe that they like and will do a good job for this application? Thank you all very much.
