A high-voltage vacuum-barrier feedthrough bushing is required to feed ICRF heating power into the PLT tokamak. The bushing is located in a high voltage, low current portion of the transmission line feeding the antenna. High voltage breakdown problems provided the impetus to modify and test the existing feedthrough bushings, develop a computer program for stress analysis and create a new cone bushing design for increased power handling capability. The test facility supports complete component testing under controlled, instrumented conditions.
