Does anybody know how much max V is on RG-213 ? Like what are the results if
a hi-pot tester used..
and say cranked up to the point where just a few ma occurs . I have an
application where I need a HV
cable, less than 10 ft, that will easily handle 5700 / 7700 vdc. It will
be hardwired at both ends, no HV connectors.
And with braid peeled way back from the center conductor, like 2-4 inches .
The plan was to also wrap some red electrical tape every few inches along its
entire length, to readily identify it as a HV cable.
1/2" coax (RG-8, RG-213, etc.) will easily take well over 10kV. more
like 50 kV. There's a whole family of HV connector schemes that are
basically a drilled out PL-259 with a banana plug on the end of the
extended dielectric/center conductor, so you have a good 2-4" of surface
creep distance.
