Received a design & build project issued by the Navy late yesterday that included a 15000 volt "Gas Impregnated Switch". I want to see a Navy engineer impregnate this switch. Definition of impregnate - imbue or permeate, to cause to conceive, make full, infuse, or best of all in a metaphorical sense to fill a container. Everyone in our local electrical industry is laughing their a$$ off at the Navy (again). They couldn't simply state "utilize SF6 gas bottles" like the utility industry. Just more psychobabble.
