Re: [TCML] Re: Tesla Digest, Vol 59, Issue 13
Hi Nathan,
Parallel for 15 kV @ 120 mA, yes. Series for 30 kV @ 60 mA,
definitely NOT! Most, if not all, NSTs with output voltages > 6 kV
are mid-point grounded on their HV outputs to facilitate only having
to insulate their internal components to 1/2 of their rated output
voltage (cheaper construction costs). That means that the two HV
output bushings of each of your 15 kV, 60 mA NSTs are at 7500
volts potential to the outer metal case and ground and 15 kV poten-
tial to each other. This internal wiring renders seriesing of their out-
puts undoable.
