Cascade Voltage Multiplier 30kV


A Voltage Multiplier made from Microwave parts. 30 Microwaves where demolished for this project.

There is a high voltage transformer, capacitor and diode in every microwave. During my days at the dump I demolished a total of almost 50 microwaves for the transformers. Of course I also took the capacitors and diodes, but didn't have any purpose for them yet. Now I used them to create this cascade. Loud bangs during flashovers and a few nice pictures.

Thanks, im not sure yet. It can by used for many high voltage experiments, like HVlifters or as supply for a marx generator.
