Last Friday July-15, TM3 was leak checked at TCS. All air to vacuum seals on service cap are good.  Helium pressure test on  TM3 water lines(except GE, HS, and Window) were done. Leak detector has no response at 0.0xE-9 atm.cc/sec. They are leak free.

Friday July 15: did HV tests (with no target installed and with the anode wire removed ). <br>

TM3 went up to 22.5kV. At this voltage it started sparking. The EL was kept at 1/2 with respect to the HV BIAS. <br>

Also HV tests were done while the EL was kept at zero V. In this case, the EL voltage was once in a while spiking  up (up to 4kV). <br>

During sparking we saw responses in the vacuum. Checked the Service Cap (with the HV Cover) in the Target Hall: we couldn't hear/see sparks there.  <br>

The HV was turned off in the same day, after 5:30pm.
