This is the first report on an "older" microwave oven, on the
newer ones it seems it is the industrial units that are not current
limited.
I am coming to the conclusion that the best philosophy to
have is not to assume anything and test whatever transformer one
comes across and act accordingly, adding a choke or whatever to
current limit the voltage regulated ones and using the current
limited ones without additional current limiting.
