When I worked on CRT TV sets, I had a high voltage accessory probe
like the one in the link.

Thanks. I'll check this out in more detail. Which meter did you pair it
with?

That's not the exact probe. The one I had fit different meters and I bought it at the electronic supply house in the mid 1970's. The meter probe plugged into the back of the HV probe adapter and had a multiplier that you applied to the meter readings. Inside the probe was a long replaceable high ohm value carbon resistor. I used it when working on CRT color TV sets which put out upwards of 30-40kvdc to the anode connection on the CRT. It worked with a Simpson 260, VTVM or DMM.
