GENERATOR
A dc charging unit giving variable voltage to
capacitor bank.
Capacitors each with low self inductance
capable of giving high short circuit currents.
An additional air cored inductor for high
current value.
Proper shunts and oscillograph for
measurement purposes,and
A triggering unit and spark gap for initiation
of current generation.
