PLEASE DON'T DO IT.
The last thing you would ever want anywhere near an HT supply, no matter
who you are or what your qualifications are, is a multimeter or VOM as you
call it.
If you must know the voltage, build a voltage divider type metering system
into your supply and keep the covers screwed down firmly whenever it is
switched on.
Alternatively, run 5 or 6 volts from a filament transformer or similar into
the primary of your HT tranny and use your multimeter and calculator to
work it out from there.
Using a meter with HT probes or flying leads on a 4KV supply is a disaster
just begging to be let loose.
