Applications of Voltage Pulse Generator to Achieve Current Pulses of High Amplitude

This paper presents a more economically advantageous method of obtaining high amplitude current impulses having a high voltage generator (GIT) as a power source. This method consists in the realization of a current impulse testing system for high voltage equipment. To obtain impulse currents with GIT, they were introduced into the circuit of the LC pulse delay cell circuit. A current impulse generator (GIC) circuit has been developed to meet current standards. This system has enabled new test methods to be developed and improved equipment developed. The methods and procedures can be applied to extend the fields of research by using current impulses to determine the dynamic and thermal stability of the electrotechnical and electroenergetic equipment, as well as the functional stability of the electronic devices in electromagnetically disturbed environments.
