RG217 V2-V2 Coaxial Cable Acceptance Test
Abstract
The ECSE Solid State Pulsed Power unit is a high current, high power solid-state pulse modulator. The RG217 V2-V2 Coaxial Cable Assembly is the interface cable between the Solid State Pulser and the load. This document covers the testing procedure for the RG217 V2-V2 Coaxial Cable Assembly. This assembly is comprised of RG217 Coaxial Cable with a LRU Connector on either end. This test procedure verifies the cable is undamaged and assembled correctly, the correct cable connectors are installed properly onto the cable, and that the entire assembly meets conductivity and holdoff voltage requirements. This procedure will verify that the RG217 Coaxial Cable Assembly meets all assembly and functional requirements. In particular, this procedure verifies the Cable Shield and Center Conductor meet conductivity requirements by testing their resistances. Additionally, this procedure ensures the RG217 Coaxial Cable Assembly meets holdoff voltage requirements by applying high voltage and verifying the RG217 Coaxial Cable Assembly does not experience any breakdowns or arcing.
