Abstract

A device for varying an electrode voltage of a CRT of a color TV includes a novel potentiometer arrangement for adjusting the aforesaid electrode voltage. In known voltage-generating devices the electrode voltage is adjusted by a special potentiometer which can handle several kilovolts. According to the invention, the potentiometer track is constituted by a resistive layer (2) situated inside the interior of the output-voltage feedthrough (10) and the wiper is constituted by the end portion of the high-voltage cable (9) which is inserted into a tubular feedthrough portion and which can slide therein in order to adjust the voltage.
