Hi Tomas

Can you give some specs. on the transformer?

I understand three phase is pretty common in Europe.   If you have a three 
phase service it would be reasonably easy. You fed it three phase in and 
rectify the three phase output and use it to power a DC coil. Configuration 
would depend on how the transformer is wired internally.

I remember seeing where someone had made three identical Tesla coils and ran 
them in close proximity from a common three phase source, each on a different 
phase. The three toploads arced together to form a "Y". I seem to remember 
someone else doing something similar with a solid state device.
