High Voltage Power Supplies

Do we have HV DC power supplies and how high? Thanks.

What are you looking for?
What’s your app?

About 3kV but current limited to micro amps to test assymetric capacitor design concepts.

ELab doesn’t have anything like that. Can build a crude basic unregulated hv pwr supply. Variac on the front end of a neon / hv transformer. Bridge rectifier and filter caps.

Didn’t Science have a hv pwr at some point?

We have a home built 40kv. I was looking for something safer with controls.
Do we have in the hundred volt range?

Thanks Art! That’s very useful.

Check in the cabinets in Science for a power supply designed to run agarose gels for biology.

Do we have a high voltage probe ? If not, one might make a nice addition.

I think we do.

Yes we do - also listed on the wiki.

Hmmm. Looked before I asked. I didn’t see it.
