I am having an issue with feedback from my pulser to the power supply.  This is what blew my old power supply when I ground it through my body to my scope.

What in the hell is going back to the PS?  The damn pots for adjusting the voltage regulator are shocking me.

BEP

Try a sheet of aluminum foil sandwiched between two layers of 1/16" thick plexiglass. Run an earth ground (short as possible) to the foil at a corner farthest from your power supply. Place your CUT on the new work pad.

This trick has saved a scope or two for me.

It does almost no good for conventional pulse experiments.
