Don?t know your country so I can?t recommend specifically but there are many sellers of second hand electronic test equipment. Included in the range are oscilloscopes, signal generators etc and the occasional HV power supplies. A little pricey. ?Hunting HiVolt? is one of the best known in UK. On the cheap, you can use the 25KV from a colour TV and monitor the voltage with a HV test probe (readily available) specifically made for this purpose, coupled to a DVM. But if you want genuine kit to do the job, search for ?test equipment?, including other terms such as PSU, HV etc, or simply ?Hunting HiVolt?. Best |

Guzzi, Thank you for the comment. I am in USA and I need to also adjust voltages from 0 to 20 kV. But using Tv is an interesting idea. |

Couple of other points. What current do you require and how accurate do you need the voltage or measurement to be? The HV probes are within 5% or so. Hi voltage supply equipment which may be of interest to you is for insulation testing, and surprisingly called ?insulation testers?. Usually the voltages are predefined though. Do you require a variable voltage or are a few ?spot? voltages OK ? The TV voltage is fixed (more or less) but if you only require a very low current you could hook up a resistor divider chain with high voltage rated resistors -- high resistance too of course. Slight annoyance is that the TV would still have to be run because the scan coils are an integral part of the circuit. If you can tell me your thoughts (not *all* of them) I can have a browse on USA sites and see if anything comes up. Slight delay though ?cos I?m on GMT. And the real important question, what is your preferred budget? Best |
