MAST Upgrade has just begun its second physics campaign. The set of magnetic probes used to diagnose the magnetic field and currents on MAST Upgrade are described, and their calibration procedures outlined including calculation of uncertainties. The arrays of installed instability diagnostics are described and the detection and diagnosis of a specimen MHD mode are demonstrated. Plans for the improvement of the magnetics arrays are outlined.
