Re: Russian high-voltage installation (being scrapped?)



Original poster: Grishka <ghome@xxxxxxxxx>

Hi everyone,

some words about these hv units - there`re some marx-generators in Snt
Petersburg (Leningrad, you know :-) The huge unit "kondensator" is
really a hv capacitor. As the sign says:

"200 MKF    5 kV NOM  7.5 kV ISP"

it`s 200 microfarad, 5 kv nominal voltage, 7.5 kv - tested voltage.

There are lots of such capacitors there - in 70`s years in was a high
voltage laboratory. Nowadays it has no fences, no guard - everyone
could enter there & take everything you want. It`s a pity - but those
photos says the true situaton in our research projects...

If you have any difficulties in translation those signs - you may
ask me one more time ;)
