Abstract :
The present theoretical study is based on experimental investigations and shows the transient behavior of vacuum tubes in series, in the case of reignition. Neglecting the real physical arc and replacing it by a programmable switch (time controlled), it can be demonstrated, in a preliminary study, that the theoretical studies do confirm the experimental results
