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...
