Subject: [Amps] 4-1000 Bias
>I have a 4-1000 g-g homebrew amp. It was designed 4000 volts on the plate.
> My new supply is 5500 volts under load.
>
> With the grid at ground potential and at 4000 volts on the plate the no
> signal grid current is 40 mA. and the plate current is 170 mA, which seems
> right.
>
> At 5500 volts on the plate and the grid at ground potential Ig is 80 mA.
> and
> Ip is 300 mA. which seems a bit high. My plan is to add bias to the grid.
> How do I determine what the correct operating point is for grounded grid?
> At 300 mA. I'm dissipating .3 X 5500 = 1650 watts which is way over the
> tubes rating.
