Oz source for high voltage components

[Doug Flynn]

Hi dudes

Does anyone know anywhere or anyone in Oz who sells insulated ceramic
terminals, high voltage wire/heatshrink? I'm building a tube amp with
a 1.2kV power supply and I don't want to fry myself.

Any help appreciated. Please email your reply to the group or to me
at doug.flynn@ipaustralia.gov.au (please don't use my Bigpond email
address as Telstra has pretty much given up on delivering emails to
Bigpond customers).

Cheers. Doug

** Farnell have high voltage test lead cable ( bit expensive) and ceramic
terminal blocks in their catalogue.

Probably ordinary PVC insulated cable inside some cambric sleeving
( DSE W4040 ) would do fine.

Strip the shield off some RG213 for 5000V rated wire, RG58 is good for
about 2.4kV.
