Thanks for your comment and kindly remind. the mica that i use is the ceramic type one with nylon screw and nuts
For the variac, I still feel a little bit confusing about the connection method. BTW, due to my job I can try my office AC power stabilizer, I think it can tune the voltage that required.
Thanks for your advise. I am wonder both 2 are broken. planning to replace it both.
Thanks sorenb. Just a little bit confusing the method and I would like to confirm it before test it. For the CCS, is that I should use a AC source with voltage in between 15-20VAC, then connect it between the middle leg of the 10m90s and solder pad in between R2 and R1 (also the pin 6, for the 2nd 10m90s).
