Re: Variac Wiring

That is correct.
In put on 2 & 4 and out put can be either 2 & 3 or 4 & 3 depending on rotation of the knob. You can start out at max and decrease to zero or visa versa.

I recently bought a new variac to power my 15kv 30ma NST. I have never wired one before and do not want to fry this one. It is a Technipower 120v-8.5A 60 HZ (W5L) . It has 3 terminals listed as 2, 3, and 4. There is a diagram showing 2 at the biginng of the coil and 3 bing the center tap with 4 the other end of the coil. Am i correct to connect the input to 2 and 4, and the output to 2 and 3? Seems simple, but i don't want to fry this considering how pricey they are now a days.

Any help is greatly appreciated

-Matt
