- Page 2 Safety and Usage of High Voltage Power Supply 1 To prevent discharging Even for insulators, various discharge phenomena are likely to occur as the applied voltage increases. Therefore, when handling high voltage, it is extremely important to ensure withstand voltage for safety. Withstand voltage is determined by the creepage distance and insulation distance of the insulator, and the shape of the electrode.
- Page 3 Safety and Usage of High Voltage Power Supply 2 Handling high voltage output cables There are a variety of ways to make connections when applying high voltage. Here we describe an example method for handling high voltage cables, and precautions that should be observed. For direct soldering In order to avoid discharging electricity in a manner that Finish soldering so that “pointed”...
- Page 4 Safety and Usage of High Voltage Power Supply 3 Items that require particular attention When handling high voltage, failure to observe safety precautions can result in electric shock, or even death in the worst case. Be sure to carefully observe the following safety precautions. Always connect a ground wire In order to avoid discharging electricity in a manner that will cause bodily harm, either cover the object with an insulator that has sufficient dielectric strength, or cover it with an object that has ground potential so that electricity is not discharged to a different location.
- Page 5 Perform operations with your right hand In order to reduce the risk of electric current flowing through the important organs of your body even in the event of electric shock, be sure to operate high voltage power supplies with only your right hand while keeping your left hand away from the high voltage power supply and all other equipment.
- Page 6 Electric Shock Electric shock, or electrocution, refers to the flow of electric current through the human body. The degree of electric shock is related to the value of the current that flows through the body, and the path through which the current flows.
- Page 7 First Aid for Electric Shock Rescue Immediately move the victim away from the conductor through which the electric current is flowing. At that time, avoid direct contact with both the conductor through which the electric current is flowing and the body of the victim, to avoid becoming subject to electric shock yourself.
