A Spark of Holiday Cheer – Holiday Season 2024

Every year, Lectromec creates a video to celebrate the holiday season. This year, we decided to utilize some of the lab’s high voltage test equipment. This year’s holiday video titled, “A Spark of Holiday Cheer” showcases the how far AC arcs can be drawn out at different voltages. Starting at just over 15kV, the arcs and sparks go all the way up to 45kV.

From the Lectromec team, we wish everyone a wonderful, happy, and safe holiday season.

For those interested in more holiday cheer, we have the following recommendations:

• The Animated Story – The Special Little Wire
• A Story of Too Much Current – An Over-current of Christmas Joy
• A Gentle Fire – The EWIS Yule Log
• 270VDC Arcing – Arcing Christmas Tree
• Physical Impact on Coax Cable Performance – Think ‘Little Drummer Boy’, but with EWIS

This video was prepared by the Lectromec technical team. Aircraft wiring is our passion, and we strive to make a contribution to the field by sharing our expertise through blogs, podcasts, and videos. We hope you find this information helpful.
