[QUOTE=bugaian;287667]Hello Clarence,
thanks for good work and information posted. I am trying to replicate your setup but its not clear for me where to place that spark gap or gas discharge tube. May be you have it posted but I did not see it?
Is it for the version with 2 symmetrical toroids or only the one with one toroid in place?
Thanks.

Hello Vitalie,
YOU SEE IT IN THIS SCHEMATIC:

it is in the place where you see the exact same symbol as the BOURNS
two electrode GDT .
it is a plasma type device that POLARIZES the ground return system with the
HOT input wire thus enabling the ground return and the HOT input to operate as an in phase circuit and draw its amperage by means of the complete green wire (two turns) around the large BLACK wire of the CAPTOR LOOP.
It also serves as a safety device for the rest of the components that PRECEDE it !! it will BLOW OUT at 600-900 surge volts according to it's rating.
Regards,
Clarence
