Re: Super plate transformer on E-bay

If one were to physically have this transformer in hand, how would it's
suitability for 60 Hz be tested?  Monitor the primary current while voltage
is brought up on the primary slowly looking for saturation?  Any other
better methods that could give a bit more quantifiable answer?  I'm thinking
about buying it, and if it doesn't work well for LV 60 HZ, make an IGBT
driver (I have tons of IGBT bricks, and I've been waiting to play with them
. . .)
