The uniqueness of the ITER fusion project drives purpose and scope here to fulfil (functional) Procurement Arrangement (PA) requirements for the Central Solenoid (CS) and Correction Coil (CC) magnets' electrical insulation [1-3]; as used and undertaken for covering high voltage testing operations of the magnet coil winding pack (WP) vacuum pressure insulation (VPI) beam qualification, followed in 2016 by start of magnets series production in the USA and China [1, 2]. Useful to be considered common state-of-the-art electrical power components testing practices [3, 4] are presented here as performed to verify that the integrity and insulation of the various components are within acceptable limits during different phases of the fabrication and to certify acceptance on delivery of the complete coils.

For many years several measurements of the beam coupling impedance have been performed each year in both longitudinal and transverse planes of the CERN Super Proton Synchrotron to keep track of the evolution of its hardware. Copious types of equipments had to be modified or added in the past to allow the SPS to produce the nominal LHC beam. [...]
