    FWIW, I control the pig primary current through a  big contactor in the 
control cabinet. I use a foot pedal switch as a "deadman"  control. Lighted 
E-stop button and pilot lights for visible indication and  the cabinet fan is 
loud enough for an audible. By no means "legal" by any  standards, but helps keep 
it safe. For God's sake, we're using pole transformers  and MOT stacks to 
power these things, so there's no second chances...
