While most NST's cannot have their secondaries wired in series, some can.
It all depends upon whether the NST's secondary is center-grounded to the
core.  If not, as is often the case with lower voltage NSTs, there's no
reason not to wire them in series.

Hi Joseph,
Uh uh,  I don't think so. You can parallel the transformer for 2x the 
amperage, but the 
insulation will not tolerate the higher voltage. At least that's the way I 
lernt
it.
