RE: [TCML] Transformer Wiring Question



A parallel connection of the secondaries of the two transformers would
produce twice the current at the rated output voltage, whereas a series
connection of the secondaries would double the rated voltage but the
amperage would not change. 
This assumes parallel connections of the primaries. A series connection
to the primaries would divide the input voltage in half, thus each
transformer would see 60 volts across its primaries, effectively halving
the rated output of current/voltage in each. 
Hope that helps Mr. Karr. :)

Subject: [TCML] Transformer Wiring Question



Hello, everyone,

I was wondering exactly how to wire two transformers so that their total
output voltage is double that of a single unit. I've tried wiring the
primaries in parallel and secondaries in parallel, but I don't know if
that achieves the desired operation. The length to which I can draw the
arc seems to have doubled, but I'm not sure if that is due to an
increased amperage further ionizing the air and allowing the arc to
travel a longer distance.

 Please help.
