Re: [TCML] power meter goes crazy

[Ed Phillips <evp@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dave,

I don't know about the power meter issues, but PFC definitely helps to  reduce
the input current and improve the power factor, but will not reduce  the 
power draw.  
Some NST's have a built-in PFC, but I'm assuming your's does not.

As an example, one of my NST's drew about 8 amps without PFC, but about 5  
amps
with PFC.  The power factor was about 0.82 or so with PFC if I  remember 
correctly.

	Was that current while running a TC or unloaded?
