Does anybody know how its possible for the wire used for the resonant chokes to withstand 10KV-20KV without insulation breakdown? Stanley Meyers combined his step-up transformer, pick up coil, and resonant chokes on one core without problem. Did he use a very good insulation or type of high voltage electrical tape? If anybody knows i would love to hear it.

you can try to use transformer oil or
synthetic resin applied in a vacuum condition.

Meyer used wire with very thick insulation. that meant a small wire diameter but a large outer diameter. this wire has to be fabricated on demand.Quote from Sirgoose on August 21st, 2012, 06:27 PM Does anybody know how its possible for the wire used for the resonant chokes to withstand 10KV-20KV without insulation breakdown?

Just available from the wholesalers for electricians.

all dielectric coatings having an effective 3KV per mil dielectric value and formulated
specifically to endure automotive temperature range from _ 40 0 to 1550 C.

That's what the VIC was designed for, to prevent current flow!!!Quote all dielectric coatings having an effective 3KV per mil dielectric value and formulated

that's no protection against high voltage. imagine static HV. it will destroy the insulation but no current will flow until insulation breaks.
Stan spoke of double insulation he used.
