Abstract :
This paper describes a study of high-voltage thermal converters (HVTC´s) at voltages above 100 V at frequencies up to 100 kHz. Techniques for the construction of HVTC´s are described, and the effects of aging and dielectric loss on the resistor, changes in the timing sequence of ac-dc difference tests, relay dead-times, warmup times, and voltage level dependence are given
