Abstract

The present invention provides an electrically isolated acquisition of a measurement signal by means of a measurement probe. For this purpose, a probe arrangement is provided with a probe head for electrically measuring a signal. The probe head is coupled to a probe coupler via optical links. In particular, optical links are used for power supply of the probe head and for forwarding optical signals corresponding to the measured electrical signal.
