1. Electrical apparatus, comprising:
- a probe, having a proximal end and a distal end, the probe comprising;
a sensor, which outputs a sensor signal; and
a first connector at the proximal end of the probe, electrically coupled at least to the sensor;
a probe adapter, comprising;
a second connector, which is arranged to mate with the first connector; and
a third connector, for coupling to a console; and
a shield, comprising a material of high magnetic permeability, which is configured to enclose an internal volume containing the first and second connectors when the probe is connected to the probe adapter.
