&lt;span style="font-size:14pt;"&gt;You can use x10 probes to attenuate the input by a factor of 10.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; However, you should NOT use these with mains (house current). For mains,&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; you should use &lt;a class="jive-link-external-small" href="http://accessories.picotech.com/active-oscilloscope-probes.html?N090403" rel="nofollow ugc noopener" target="_blank"&gt;CAT&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; III differential probes&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
