Hi all -

RS components has some 25kV eht cable in its catalogue with the following
specs (RS 211-4218) -

Polythene insulated 7/0·3mm (0·5mm2) plain copper stranded conductor with
substantial outer sheath of red PVC. Suitable for E.H.T. up to 25kV. Overall
dia. 5·2mm (nom.).

Would this be ok for connections between the NST, filter circuit and tank
circuit ?  On the same theme, what do you recommend for connections between
the spark gap, capacitor and primary coil and for the RF ground connection
for a 1kW coil ?

Thanks,

Alan.
