- Has anyone run the grid of an 8877 not connected to ground as far as DC is concerned? I really need to meter the grid current by bypassing the grid to ground with capacitors and several 10 ohm resist

- Hi Jim, Why not leave the grid grounded but, just measure the cathode and plate currents then subtract to calculate the grid current? 73 & Good morning, Marv WC6W http://qsl.net/wc6w/ Subject: [Amps]

- Hi Jim, Ah... the unknown factor. You could include an (optically?) isolated plate current sensor and then do the math and metering at low voltage. 73 & Good morning, Marv WC6W http://qsl.net/wc6w/ S

- I have used a non optical scheme at 9KV for a twt power supply. The hv is fed through a 100 ohm resistor, 100w in my case. The current through the resistor is about 500 mA so the voltage drop is 50v.
