The peak voltage at the Hermes III diode is measured to be 19 +- 2 MV by three indirect techniques that utilize parapotential flow theory, range of H/sup /minus// ions, and radiation output. Associated measurements of peak voltage along the MITL support the measured diode voltage and show that HERMES III operates as a balanced system, with each cavity contributing equally to the power pulse at the diode. 10 refs., 6 figs., 1 tab.
