Hi Brad,
For building a simple Tesla coil with an NST you need a transformer
with no rectification or active cut-off circuitry, as this may cause
you problems if you don't properly understand what is
happening. When I purchased mine I ensured that it was simply a high
voltage step up transformer with no other electronics.
Safety devices such as ground / leakage current circuit breakers can
be introduced as separate modules, likewise NST RF protection filters
can be added to the basic transformer.
Thanks
Chris R

Hello All,
I just purchased a new NST made by Transco it is a 15000 60ma. It is
an outdoor type 2 Vanguard GFP G- series, complies with secondary
ground fault requirements. and has a test mode.
Is there anything I need to do to use this for a coil?
