ABSTRACT:
A high voltage connection assembly for connecting a high voltage source to a high voltage device and inhibiting ionic conduction between a first and second points. The inventive system includes a first mechanism for providing a voltage potential between the first and second points and a second mechanism for providing discrete segments of insulation against the ionic conduction between the first and second points. In a particular embodiment, the high voltage connection assembly of the invention uses a plurality of equally spaced square grooves on the insulation of a high voltage cable to receive a plurality of O-rings. These O-rings, located between a cable well housing the insulated high voltage cable and the insulated high voltage cable, provide discrete segments of insulation between a first point and a second point thereby inhibiting the occurrence of high voltage arcing and leakage.
