Re: [TCML] Dielectric strength of vinyl?

Youd have to find out exactly what type of vinyl and check with the

So at 125 mils on the cautious side it should withstand 100kV but I
dont know for how long, Im sure there are many other factors involved
in a potential break-down.
How many amps and how much voltage do you plan on these cable
carrying?

Thanks Brandon, that'll get me past the ballpark, anyway. It's just the bog standard clear vinyl tubing like you get at a hardware store, 1/8" wall, for HV supply to a household duty TC.
