Re: space winding?

Mostly it's for extra voltage standoff between turns if you're pushing the coil hard. Also reduces inter-turn capacitance at the cost of less inductance per coil length. Not done much these days with since modern materials (enamel/acrylic vs gutta percha/bakelite) more inductance outweighs the reduced C benefit.

Hi everybody,

Can anyone tell me what is the use of "space winding" the secondary and what are the benefits of doing this?
