Re: [TCML] First Light, MOTs, etc.

["Paul Brodie" <pbbrodie@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'm curious.
First, have you actually built this? Second, are you using 240AC primary 
MOT's? I mean does NZ use 240 mains? Finally, I have run across many 
different MOT's and it has been difficult to find 4 of them that are very 
close to the same, much less 6 of them. Do you go to much trouble to match 
the MOT's for output voltage, use what you find, or what?

I have tried to match the output voltage as closely as possible and use 4 
MOT's, 2 on each side with center ground, like on Mark Dunn's web site. 
Kudos to Mark, great web site, great info.
Thanks.
Best regards,
Paul

So many MOTs here

IMHO the answer to use is

1) 6 in series for the main Power (classic 3 a side in oil)
2)  Full wave bridge
3)  PI section DC filler with (4 and 5)
4)  4 gapped MOT's in a 2// and two in series for Choke (10Hy approx
Saturating at over 1 amp)
5)  Use the MOT Caps on hand to filter DC
6)  Ring up choke from MOTs as per 4 above

Thats 14 MOT's and your going to get about 6kVA
