The biggest operational safety challenge that I can see is the potential lack of industry-standard NEMA and possibly IEEE approved enclosures and procedures for working with the high voltage pulses and the associated RF noise.

This reminds me of EMP produced by nuclear explosions and lightning strikes, so let’s examine the declassified TEMPEST protection guidelines. These specify that the protective shielding must have 90 dB attenuation, if i recall, which is attainable with enclosures that are bolted to ground each 0.9m, and similar minimum separation between hot electric sources and cool signal paths.
