Layout and Operation of High-Voltage Test Setups

2.1 Dimensions and Technical Equipment of the Test Setups

The dimensions and equipment of a high-voltage laboratory₁ are primarily determined by the magnitude of the voltage to be generated. A second important feature is the intended application e.g., for teaching purposes, as a testing or research laboratory.

2.1.1 Stands for High-Voltage Practicáls

Practicals are laboratory exercises which give the students an opportunity to conduct set experiments under supervision. The experiments would generally be performed in small groups of three up to a maximum of six participants. The experimental stands described below are designed for this kind of practicals.

In order to accommodate a large number ...
