Safely testing 22 kV capacitors
"Ignoramus27088" wrote in message
. .. The seller was wrong in describing them as 22 VOLT capacitors. They are 22 KILO volt capacitors. (the seller is Fermilab). This is kinda a sad commentary on the kind of people they'll hire at Fermilab these days, no? I don't know the proper care and feeding of such high energy storage capacitors, but when I've seen people working with them they always carried a long (about 6') wooden stick with a shorting strap (about 1"x6") on top to always ensure the caps were discharged before they touched them. |
