Hi John

I used a current transformer.

Cheers, Chris.

Hello,
I was wondering how one measured the current of a MOT with out putting
their life or multimeter at risk. You can not feed it a lower voltage
because of it's non linear current behavior(pain in the A$$). any tips
would be greatly obliged
Thanks
John
