MRI CT Scanners and DNO Voltage fluctuations.

Ian King

How are older (6-10 years) MRI CT scanners running in the UKs Hospitals coping with Line voltage peaks exceeding 440 volts rms ?

Is it fair to link peaks like this on PV on sunny days even in winter ?

    I think that if there were significant numbers of scanners keeling over due to excess voltage it would at least make it to the local newspapers.

    Wouldn't a hospital which is big enough to have an MRI scanner have its own transformer?
