Hardware, Materials, Salvaged Fittings and Much More – Isolation, Day 26

Mounting hardware, fittings, insulation materials, acrylic, fibre-glass, bits and pieces. All salvaged from machines, equipment and other high voltage related material. I want to reuse all this in my own projects and experiments. I started spring cleaning my work shop and I have come across so many components. Its all in various bins, boxes and

Fuses In Power Electronics and Other Fuses – Isolation, Day 24

This video shows the different fuses, breakers, MCB, RCD, melting fuses and automatic fuses that I have. I started spring cleaning my work shop and I have come across so many components in various bins, boxes and drawers that I finally had some time to get it sorted and put together in groups. High Voltage

High Voltage Insulators – Isolation, Day 20

In this video I talk about some of the high voltage insulator items I have collected. Normal household 230/400VAC porcelain insulators with brass mounting hardware. Lineman clamping connectors to be operated by an insulated rod. From a large distribution transformer, there is some large brown 10 kVAC feed through high voltage insulators. Railway electrification system

Salvaged IGBT Bricks From Power Electronics – Isolation, Day 18

Over the years I have collected a great deal of salvaged IGBT bricks from the different power electronics I have taken apart. It have primarily kept 50+ Ampere rated bricks, single or half-bridge modules and 3 phase modules without built-in protection. It mostly comes from UPS, motor drives, welders or x-ray generators.
