High voltage experiments with Tesla Coil

As part of my project I require a high voltage power supply. I need to understand the relation between the systems to feed power to the wireless power transmitter and also the dielectric field surrounding the Tesla Coil.

is there a way to protect my self in case i accidentally touch on of these whale it is on.

@401281 Yes, don't touch it. I use high voltage gauntlets but they protect you only until 70KV. IN use work high voltage electricians working up in the air installing the wire from the power plant. The current here is low but it is very unpleasant to get zapped. So take care.

My friend built a tesla coil, he insists that's its different, he is saying that more power is coming out than what is goin in, I said that's increased voltage cause of the wire wraps. But he thinks that once charged it will perpetialy make energy, that's imposible. He is saying that with his device inthe back of his truck he can spin a meter on the side of ur house back wards. Ill try to get more info , he wont share much because he is afraid he will get ripped off.

@Travisthehead Hello, Please watch my videos about the energy of a Tesla coil. My Radiant energy series. I explain in details what you can do and ask the questions is there more energy form a Tesla Coil. The answer is no, however the dielectric field around the Tesla coil has more energy available for extraction from agitated ZPE I guess. I show the direct connection with measurement and then via a receiver. With the right arrangement of receivers you get much more energy out of it. Try it out

whats the maximum voltage a tesla coil can take, per wrap?

[TheOldScientist]

@Travisthehead If you need more details have a look at my website. I have listed formulas and Tesla design software to create a working coil.

It depends on two things. First the current the wire can take and the breakdown voltage. I used thicker wire at the first 200 windings and thinner wire up to 1000 windings then. You can easy have 1000 volt per turn. As long as you make sure that breakdown is avoided with varnish, and top capacitance you should be fine. It took me some time to get there. My Bi-Polar Tesla coil is shorter but have withstand more then 700KV. I have not reached a limit for my coils yet. I had only limited space.
