My homemade PA has a pair of 50 ohm ~200 watt very long carbon resistors in parallel. It dumps a primary disconnect during a fault of over 5 amperes. Normally all I hear is a little faint tic as it

The resistor must be surge rated for the voltage across the resistor and the peak energy. RCD makes xxx-P series pulse rated resistors, or you can use a "glow-bar" type. The RCD pulse rated resistor

The point is that they are both too small if they fail. At C. 3800-4000v, a 10 ohm 10 watt resistor will fail. The glass coated ones usually break cleanly, as if they were sawed in two. I have learne

Looks like the RCD resistors will do the trick (the 20W parts should fit nicely in the space available inside the L-7 PS). Thanks to Tom, Rich, Todd, Ian, Phil et al for the quick education on glitch

Their 5Watter (140 watt-seconds/joules) will do an L-7 with ease since stored energy is c. 80-joules. If you get a price, please post it. cheers, Mike. - R. L. Measures, 805.386.3734, AG6K, www.vcne

Hi Rich, Would there be any concern about the lower maximum resistance dictated by the use of the 5 watt steady-state rating versus using a 20 or 50 watt resistor? At 750mA worst case steady-state an

Hi Rich, Yes, of course, a faster dump means more peak current - that is my concern. The 10 ohm resistor and the components/wiring in series with it will experience a peak current ~3.6 times greater

Eimac's bulletin says that they want the peak energy limited to 50 joules. They say that a 50 ohm resistor will limit current to 40 amps. If the value of the resistor is larger than necessary, it wil

The real limitation for this application is power dissipation in normal operation. For say a 30 ohm resistance, 5W size clearly won't handle even 0.5A. Dissipation is downrated drastically with ambie

Not my thumb, but Eimac's. Based on the 40A limit that Phil summarizes below, it would actually be 25 ohms per kV. However, many people tend to use less than this (in consideration of the voltage dr
