In a message dated 98-02-13 03:30:25 EST, you write:

-  snip -
<< Thus, with the proper resonant conditions a 15KV 60 MA
 NST can charge the mains cap up to voltages in excess of
 40KV, and at a rate that is much greater than the 60 MA
 rating would suggest. Note that both the extra voltage and
 extra current can contribute to the NST failing prematurely.
 
 Hope this helps.
