Extremely High Voltage Spark Gap Switch

reference paper [13]   |   reference paper [14]

A high SF6 pressure, high voltage spark gap switch was fabricated and tested up to 1 MV.
The switch is installed and tested at the output of the high voltage PFN-Marx generator.
A multi-channel, multi-gap spark gap switch R&D was also performed.
