I concur David, BIL is the voltage withstand of the insulation for a 1.2 x 50 uSec uni-potential lightning strike simulation. This is not a continuous duty cycle test, only a single surge from a Mark's generator as specified in IEEE - 4. Note, a lower potential switching surge may cause more damage as the duration of a 1000 x 4000 usec transient has multitudes of higher energy contained within that single pulse. Most systems are designed with BIL lightning ratings of 8 to 10 times the continuous duty voltage using AC. So a 50-kV mica capacitor may only be good for 5 or 6 kV AC. You need to watch the tan-delta of your caps as the frequency increases when applying caps to Tesla Coils. See Ref: http://www.versapower.pt/files/TAN-DELTA-CABLE-TESTING-07.pdf This is the prime failure mode of Tesla Coils - failure to acknowledge losses in capacitors that lead to catastrophic failures - even explosions.

This is like a 50 microsecond or less fast rise pulse of the high amplitude voltage rating that the devise is suppose to be able to withstand without sustaining damage. This extra robusticity renders the devise more immune to lightning strikes or huge witching surges that the entire power line infrastructure and its associated components would surely be vulnerable to.

I stopped build Tesla Coils a few years back due to family commitments. I was thinking recently about the possibility of creating a low voltage Tesla coil using a thyristor to dump energy into a tank circuit. I build a thyratron Tesla Coil this way 3 years ago. The thyratron simply discharged a large capacitor over the tuned LC circuit and then switched off again. I had significant problems with reverse overvoltage caused by the tank circuit. But it did work. Anyone have any thoughts on this? It could result in very cheap Tesla Coils if the kinks could be ironed out. Cheers! -Wilyarti ------------------------------ Message: 12 Date: Wed, 23 May 2018 12:07:50 -0400 From: jhowson4 <jhowson4@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: TCML tesla Coil Mailing List <tesla@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: Re: [TCML] The Tesla Coil Builder's Guide to The Colorado Springs Notesof Nikola Tesla by Richard L.

Hull Wow that's a deal... I think I ended up with an extra copy of that some time ago. I need to look for it in these boxes of books! But I'd better make sure it's a spare before selling it. Took too long to find, then suddenly won two together.Nick A________________________________From: Tesla on behalf of Ed Sent: Sunday, May 20, 2018 11:53:32 AMTo: Tesla Coil Mailing ListSubject: Re: [TCML] The Tesla Coil Builder's Guide to The Colorado Springs Notesof Nikola Tesla by Richard L.

While there, I visited the Oklahoma City Science Museum. The museum had a medium-sized tesla coil enclosed in a plexiglass room. It could be operated about once a minute for about 10 seconds. The secondary appeared to be about 4 feet tall and about 4 inches in diameter. It had a toroid that looked like about 4" x 12". The capacitors appeared to be a bank of doorknob capacitors. It used some kind of static spark gap which was not visible. It also had what appeared to be the biggest NST that I have ever seen as the power source. Spark length into free air was about 2 feet. Does anyone know who built this coil?
