Facility

Electronics workbenches and lab setup

A shared workspace for assembling and testing your own low-voltage circuits, connecting sensors and developing embedded hardware. Bring a board, a prototype or a debugging problem and discuss the instruments your project needs.

What you can make

Low-voltage electronics projects
Embedded development and debugging
Hardware prototype assembly

Access & session planning

Induction and session enquiry

Tell us which measurements, probes, soldering tools or development interfaces your project requires. We will confirm the relevant instruments and models for your session.

Specialist equipment

800 V / 25 A high-voltage power supply

A specialist power source with a stated 800 V / 25 A rating for engineering enquiries beyond ordinary low-voltage bench work. It supplies electrical power to a test setup; it is staff-controlled and is not available for member-led high-voltage experiments.

What you can make

Discussion of specialist power-supply requirements
Staff review of proposed engineering tests

Access & session planning

Staff-controlled specialist enquiry only

This is not available for self-service member use. Live high-voltage experiments are excluded from shared member bench sessions. The actual model, output envelope and suitability must be confirmed before any staff-managed work; the stated ratings do not imply simultaneous maximum output.

PROJECT IDEA

Build a sensor prototype

A possible workflow to discuss with the team.

01
Discuss your circuit, supply voltage and the measurements you need.
02
Arrange suitable bench equipment and test the sensor or board.
03
Review the hardware and firmware questions, then plan an enclosure or dashboard.

Bring to the conversation: A schematic, board details, firmware and a description of the fault or behaviour you want to test.

What to include in your enquiry

The circuit or system you are working on
Required measurements, interfaces and test equipment
Any power, energy or special handling requirements

The shared member offer focuses on low-voltage electronics. The high-voltage supply is specialist NWATT equipment, not a self-service bench instrument.

Can I use the high-voltage supply myself?

No. The 800 V / 25 A supply is staff-controlled and not part of self-service member access. Specialist enquiries require a separate review.

Which oscilloscopes and other instruments do you have?

The lab has an existing electronics setup. The individual instrument models are being catalogued; tell us what you need so we can confirm the relevant equipment rather than promise a particular model.
