Hello All,

I was wondering,

Would a bank of paralleled motor-start caps be suitable as a power factor
correction cap? I I calculated, if memory serves, something like 80uF or
90uF for my 12kV 60mA NST. When powering my TC, it blows a 10 amp fuse no
problem...   ...and I really wish it wouldn't. Since then I could safely
fuse my variac with the fuse holder built into it.
