Question:

What current transformer do I need for this set up?

Hello, I am using a spark transmitting system that will throw about 40KV at about 5MA. I need to step this way down. What rating should I look for? If a current transformer isn't the way to go, please tell me what I should doThanks in advance

Answer:

Current transformer coupling the 40kv line then produce about a few hundred volts depending on how many turns existed in the current transmitter. It needs many such transformers to do different step down. If you require over 5kv per step,current transformer coupling might not be the best way. The better way is control the high voltage 40kv source.Vary the supply source shall do.
