Attached grounding rod to back of HV cage. Not ideal, but couldn't find a better place without making a extension to the cable. Will see what John |

Got sign off from John Chow to run the system, though the nylon insulator was not ready when he came by. But we went over everything together.
Installed blue nylon insulator with all vacuum surfaces cleaned at least with methanol. No NPT fitting or tube installed, just testing service |

The copper tubes to be used in the TM3 test piece may have flux inside them from soldering the end caps on. There are holes along the length for outgassing,
and we will try to bake them out in the test stand before installing them. There is still a dummy bake out target installed there, see the photo for how
the tubes are loaded in. TGHT ramping started around 3pm. |

Test piece installed with Sam, Aaron and Alexander. Ended up shimming the support stand (middle foot) since it seemed to be bowing a bit and distorting
the gap between the containment box stand-in piece and the service tray piece. We should measure the gaps when testing is done with the same configuration.
Installation was not too hard, installed the whole thing as one piece. Had to remove the middle foot on the long side to get it through the door but otherwise |

Started ramping up about 45 mins ago, now at 50kV with no issues. No sparking, occasional current draw to get to the next voltage step. Test piece
is no longer drawing any current, as opposed to yesterday when it was drawing around 4uA at this point. Trace left on insulator must have partially evaporated |

Ramping up to 75kV. Started drawing current at 63.5kV this time.
Now at 75kV, drawing 5uA of current. Ramp up easy.

I have rewired the test stand (service cap wiring only, not power supply wiring) to anode bias mode as shown in the diagram. This was not how it was
wired before, there are several things I have removed that appear to be newer additions. I also removed the burned cable between TBHT(-) and COIL(-), and
between the multipin feedthrough and ground (probably related to the other burned cable). |
