What is the Kva rating of this transformer? It probably isn't 4500Kva. that
would be a huge amount of power for a MRI. If it is that much power I think
you whould need some serious ballesting here. Use only like a few hundred
milliamps or so. This seems like something the power company would use on
there power plant to send down the lines or something.
