Electrical Noise Problems Associated with Cable and Gage Failure During Explosive Testing

Abstract

Electrical noise and cross talk generated during explosive testing by gage and cable destruction were investigated. Results indicate that the primary instrumentation parameters affecting noise and cross talk levels are cable type, transducer bridge symmetry and its effects on signal conditioner common mode rejection ratio, and the degree of isolation between conditioner power circuits.
