Only one... kill the HV with either a proper HV fuse and/or trip the HV supply off line. For the same reason you can't depend on a blown resistor to stop the arc, you can't depend on a low voltage fu

I think that's why Will asked the question about the cathode. Will a disconnected cathode emit? If not, why would a hot grid? (and I thought I was going to be quiet today...) ________________________

That's how a solid strap works. RF current pushes out to the edges. The amount of inductance is directly related to the flux surrounding the conductor, and since the flux is spread out the inductanc

When did we get arcing? In a good vacuum? But this is apparently a real special kind of arc because it apparently leaves no trace behind inside the tube. Quicksand R L MEASURES, AG6K. 805-386-3734 r@

Lon, That's exactly the point I was trying to get at. Some protection is better than none at all. If a tube arcs internally, it's gassy as an arc can't form in a vacuum. It needs to be replaced no ma

An Eimac 3cx3000A7 that arced during final test would undoubtedly be tossed into the scrap bin. Large ones have an ion pump. I disassembled a kaput 4cx5000A and I did not see any gettering material.
