  Electron accelerators of the ELV type are widely used in industrial and research organizations. The high-voltage rectifier of ELV accelerator is used as a high-voltage source of the tandem accelerator for boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) at the Institute of Nuclear Physics SB RAS. As a source of high voltage, a more adequate source has been developed for subsequent ELV-based machines. Its parameters are: voltage - 1200 kV, load current - 20 mA, voltage polarity - positive. New specific requirements are put forward for this rectifier; therefore, its design has a number of differences in comparison to the ELV design. In particular, high voltage is transmitted to the accelerator-tandem over a sectioned feeder that lies within the rectifier column of the source. In order to reduce the overall dimensions of the source in its rectifier sections, a rectification circuit with four times voltage magnification is used. The operating frequency of the primary supply voltage is 1400 Hz. At present, the source has been manufactured, undergoes bench tests and is being prepared for use in the BN'T complex.
