Hi Tyler,

I have connected 3 30ma 15kv nsts in parallel.   I then added another 60ma
to make 150ma.  I dont think that they need to be depotted.  Mine are the
plastic F.A.R.T nst's which can't be depotted.

I remember seeing a post in the archives about how to hook them properly.
  I just connected the earths (centre tap)  together, placed the HV outputs
near each other and turned them on.  Make sure they all turn on at the same
time (using a multi-point power block).

It the nsts's are our of phase, then there will be an arc.  I did one side
at a time.

I'm no expert, so it might be a good idea to search the archives just in
case I was doing something wrong.




Justin.

Hi,

    I have been looking over the amount of power I could draw from running
three 15Kv 30ma NSTs compared to one 12Kv 60ma. My friend and I have been
searching the web for some basic set ups for hooking them up without having
to depot them. We were wondering if anybody could help us with the set up
or link us to a page that has a detailed description of the wiring.

                                                  Sincerely,
                                                    Tyler
