impulse voltage

This has important safety implications for impulse voltages and insulation clearances.

Also, steep-front impulse voltages are sometimes used in nuclear physics experiments.

High impulse voltages are used to test the strength of electric power equipment against lightning and switching surges.

The categories take into account the total continuous energy available at the given point of circuit, and the occurrence of impulse voltages.

Such devices can be classified into two types: impulse voltage generators and impulse current generators.

The energy can be limited by circuit breakers or fuses, and the impulse voltages by the nominal level of voltage.

Klydonograph is generally used to record impulse voltages between 2 kV and 50 kV.

Impulse Voltage Laboratory Test set: Impulse voltage generator (1 MV, 10 kJ).

(c) The current into the capacitor, I, is the linear sum of the impulse voltage upon R and V upon R. To show this sum as a voltage the product R x I is plotted.
