[TCML] Fw: re Jacobs Ladder needed in Sydney.



I got this request for a Jacobs ladder in Sydney. I often get Tesla coil requests so this is a bit of a change.
I’ve included my reply but if someone there has a safely mounted NST, it might help them out.

Cheers
Peter

Hi Larry
Did I answer this already?
The problem of big JL’s is they use big amounts of high voltage power. Unquestionably lethal if you fall onto exposed wires.
So they need to be covered say with an acrylic cylinder. But this would still be just one layer of plastic and would not meet electrical standards.  
As such it is not likely to be insurable.
My JL is only for home use and is not rugged enough for transport or stage use. In any case I would have to supervise it myself. 
They are a part of cheesy Frankenstein mythology though.
I’ll put a message out but I’m not sure who is available in Sydney.
Cheers
Peter
