High Voltage Impulse Inductors

Precision Wave-shaping and
Measurement for HV Test Systems

Overview

Impulse Inductors are essential components in high-voltage impulse testing circuits, controlling the shape and duration of the impulse waveform. Carona Power produces precision air-cored inductors engineered for accurate lightning impulse, switching impulse, and oscillatory impulse applications. Designed for robust performance, our inductors ensure repeatable, reliable high voltage testing of transformers, arresters, GIS, and other high voltage equipment.
