Method for capacitive fill level measurement comprising a fill level probe which can be designed both as a cable probe or a rod probe, for fill level measurements for liquids and bulk materials in a container which can be both conductive and non-conductive, in particular for analogue fill level measurements and/or combined analogue/threshold value fill level measurements, having a fill level probe, which is introduced substantially vertically into the container, for measuring the fill level of a filling material so that the fill level probe extends, in the introduced state, substantially vertically into the container, wherein, by means of a first measuring electrode formed on the fill level probe, a vertically extending measuring section for the fill level measurement is defined, a lower boundary electrode arranged on the vertically lower end of this measuring section defines a boundary of the measuring section with a lower end point, an electrode assembly forms a vertically upper boundary of the measuring section with an upper end point for the fill level measurement and comprises a boundary electrode and a further measuring electrode, wherein both the electrode assembly and the lower boundary electrode are each insulated from the first measuring electrode, and the boundary electrode is insulated from the further measuring electrode of the electrode assembly in each case by means of a dielectric with respect to one another, wherein the lower and the upper end point of the measuring section is used for compensating for the systematic falsifications caused by permittivity changes in the filling material and therefore material-independent analogue signals are obtained for measuring sections of any size and a material-independent detectability of the respective end point is effected, in that the lower boundary electrode is connected to a first terminal of a first measuring input of a measuring circuit and the first measuring electrode is connected to a second terminal of the first measuring input, of the measuring circuit, and the boundary electrode and the further measuring electrode of the electrode assembly are connected to a further measuring input of the measuring circuit via a first terminal and a second terminal which are separate from one another, and furthermore a further electrode is formed either by a conductive wall of the container or, if no wall of the container is conductive, is arranged separately outside on the wall of the container, wherein a capacitance difference is formed as a difference signal from the capacitance change, which is detected at the first measuring input, between the lower boundary electrode and the further electrode of the container and between the first measuring electrode and the further electrode of the container, and a capacitance difference is formed as a difference signal from the capacitance change, which is detected at the further measuring input, between the boundary electrode and the further electrode of the container and between the further measuring electrode and the further electrode of the container. wherein both the electrode assembly and the lower boundary
