Usually test lead wire is good for about 6KV. You can get ¡®igniter wire¡¯ from a furnace place. We use it for igniting our pilots on our waste solvent burners.? That stuff is usually silicone and good for about 20KV.
What do folks use nowadays for high voltage wire between a power supply and the amp? A check with car parts stores for spark plug wire yields only today¡¯s weird stuff (used to suppress radio interference?) that doesn¡¯t have copper. In one case, ?a ¡°high performance¡± spark wire company boasts that their product has a resistance of ¡°only¡± 40-50 ohms per foot. Ridiculous. Thoughts?
