       Hi all,

Re:--- one of my soon-to-be re-started projects (#40000000) ;-)

     These oils (even used) can be filtered /distilled ---
to remove any water/metal /carbon /acid etc. 
      I have seen some postings of electrical specs.
of some materials---- I want to do some tests on these & other things.
---- water for example ,is a di-electric. 
      Does any one "out there" have specs on the curvature
of radius etc. for electrodes for hi-pot testing of di-electric
materials ?? (industry standards )
