Re: [TCML] phillips question about wax and more



Hi Phillip,

Maybe my numbers are the ones that are off. I performed open and short circuit testing, but also used a HV divider for the high side. This was a homebrew divider. I'll rerun my test on my modified NST soon and verify. I have a new HV probe showing up so I can not worry about the HV divider calibration and all that. If I find it simply doubled the current, that will be interesting. My voltage is a little lower however as a few layers of windings had to be removed due to damage.

Anyway, I'll post results when I get probe and redo the measurements.

Take care,
Bart
I have a fluke 335 current meter, and that's about it so I was able to
make some imprecise measurements of the transformer.

Unmodified
Primary   121.6V  6.4A  778.24 VA
Secondary 12000V  60mA  720.00 VA

Power Factor 0.93

Modified
Primary   120.8V 12.4A 1497.92 VA
Secondary 12000V 116mA 1393.07 VA

I can only vouch for the accuracy of the primary measurements.  These
measurements were taken with half the shunts removed.  Maybe my
numbers are way off?
