Re: Ballasting a Pole Pig (Revisited)

The suggestion to run 120v into the HV bushings and measure the LV side is a good one. I fried a 5kVa 14.4kv pole transformer several years ago after some strikes to the HV supply lines from my 6" coil (which was producing 6-7 footers at the time). The pig appeared as a dead short after that. Hope this is not something similar.

I am unable to get any arc from the pig, at any power
setting...
