Design and construction of a Tesla coil with difference top load shape / Fadhli Fadzil

A Tesla coil is a type of resonant transformer circuit invented by Nikola Tesla around 1891. It is used to produce high voltage, low current and high frequency. This project focuses in innovating the design and constructs a small scale Tesla coil which produces a high voltage but low current and pro...
