The first experimental phase of the novel and complex power supply system of SPIDER revealed some issues requiring deep studies to be understood: the interaction of the RF oscillators due to magnetic coupling among the on board circuits because of large connection loops; frequency instability of the oscillators that prevent the possibility to deliver the rated power; the flow of stray RF currents on the plant components that affects also diagnostic signals due to the adoption of a capacitive voltage divider (CVD) at the output of the RF generators.

Abstract

The first experimental phase of the novel and complex power supply system of SPIDER revealed some issues requiring deep studies to be understood: the interaction of the RF oscillators due to magnetic coupling among the on board circuits because of large connection loops; frequency instability of the oscillators that prevent the possibility to deliver the rated power; the flow of stray RF currents on the plant components that affects also diagnostic signals due to the adoption of a capacitive voltage divider (CVD) at the output of the RF generators.
