Since we are talking home brew here the easiest cure for mental problems is
to use N connectors for the RF and the PL259/SO239 for the HV.
Then along with the warning label wrap the HV RG-213 with red tape. Anybody
that messes up after all that should be removed from the gene pool anyway(-;
Just kidding.
Since a HB amp doesnt fall under any of Big Brothers safety or nanny state
rules use of expensive nanny state regulatory agency approved connectors is
not required.
Now can we get back to something interesting to discuss.

> REQUIREMENTS
> 1. In general, connectors for high voltage use are to be chosen such that
> they are
> incompatible with connectors for signal cables.
> 2. Connector components properly rated for the intended application shall
> be used.
> Systems requiring voltages above 20kVDC shall utilize connectors specified
> for
> the maximum design voltage.
> 3. In particular, because of the well-known physical compatibility with
> BNC
> connectors, which have a lower voltage rating, the use of MHV connectors
> is
> prohibited.
> 4. Where possible, red-jacketed cable should be used for high voltage
> applications.
> 5. The chassis connector shell shall be solidly grounded to the panel on
> which it is
> mounted.
> 6. A "D" hole shall be used for mounting all panel connectors except
> flange mount
> type connectors.
> RECOMMENDATIONS
> 1. Standard Connectors For a System up to 5kVDC
> a. The standard coaxial cable connector shall be the Kings Electronics
> 1705-2,
> AMP 51426-1 (for use with RG 58C/U), or equivalent (STK#1435-2110).
> Fermilab ES&H Manual 5045-2
> Rev. 1/99
> b. The standard coaxial panel connector for flange mount type should be
> either Kings Electronics 1707-1 or AMP 51421, or equivalent
> (STK#1435-2120).
> c. The standard coaxial panel connector for "D" hole mount type should be
> either Kings Electronics 1704-1, AMP 51494, or equivalent (STK#1435-2115).
> d. The standard bulkhead adapter for coaxial applications shall be Kings
> Electronics 1709-1, AMP 225064, or equivalent (STK#1435-2100).
> 2. Standard Connectors For a System up to 10kVDC
> a. The standard coaxial cable connector shall be the Reynolds Industries
> P/N167-4535, the Kings Electronics 1065-2 (for use with type C cable), or
> equivalent (STK#1435-1700).
> b. The standard coaxial panel connector shall be the Reynolds Industries
> P/N167-3555, the Kings Electronics 1064, or equivalent (STK#1435-4800).
> c. The standard coaxial panel feed-through shall be the Reynolds
> Industries
> P/N167-3705 or equivalent (STK#1435-4850).
> 3. Standard Connectors For a System up to 20kVDC
> a. The standard coaxial cable connector shall be the Reynolds Industries
> P/N167-3516 (for use with RG 213/U) or equivalent (STK#1435-1750).
> b. The standard coaxial panel connector shall be the Reynolds Industries
> P/N167-3517 or equivalent (STK#1435-4900).
