I want to know how high voltage generator works

It contains an AC oscillator and a step up transformer. The AC oscillator converts the DC voltage to alternating current which the transformer then steps up to a high voltage. … Many people homebrew a similar device using an ignition coil from an older vehicle as the transformer. …

How do I improve and isolate from mains ground my Tesla coil control circuit?

I would eliminate the feedback loop from the transformer secondary (HV) and use a simple oscillator (e.g. 555) to drive the '151 FET driver. …
