Re[15]: Micromaze usage - ballasting
Index Previous in Thread Next in Thread

Appearance can be deceiving. What was its rated voltage characteristics. For a working neutron fusor, 20kv is minimum, 30kv is desired and a higher rating will be preferred for future increases.

Most insulators are conservatively rated and a 15kv will suffice for low end work and will probably survive 25kv applied.

This thread has left the vacuum realm and should have wound up under "fusor construction". This fusor construction discussion about insulators will now be lost in the 15th iteration on a post about ballasting on the vacuum page. Oh well. In future let's move the thought to a new posting on a different message forum if it belongs there.
