Abstract

This study gives the steps for design of a 1.2/50 μs lightning impulse generator. The generator has an output voltage up to 12 kV. The circuit is a single stage Marx generator with spherical gaps as switch. The flashover on the switch makes an interference to the electromagnetic environment and sometimes this interference reaches to a hazardous level for the electronic and sensitive devices.
