Greets all,

 

I customer/colleague of mine is in need of an engineer that has qualifications for working with high voltages in the 9kV to 15kV range.

 

They are looking for someone with the Expertise in developing:

 

  1. High voltage protection circuits, e.g. power supply protection circuits while ensuring against corona issues, etc.

        2. Protection measures in-house, e.g. help establishing tools to ensure we can safely test high voltage systems in-house

 

This is not in my comfort zone, nor is my geographic location to my colleague, so I am hoping there is someone in the NYC area might be of help.

 

PM me if you are able to assist.  I will fill in the details in the PM.  What I can say is that they are working on some really cool stuff.

 

Cheers,

JIm

I've done a test setup for 480VAC input and 900VDC output. It scared me a lot; there were, without a doubt, a few ways for the operator to figure out how to defeat the safety features. I am much more comfortable with nasty arc flash and 48VDC.
