Re: [TCML] RSG Electrical Connections

[Gary Lau <glau1024@xxxxxxxxx>]

There's no issue with radiated emissions.  However, they should not share
power connections, because you MUST control the NST and motor separately,
thereby requiring separate wires.  For instance, you'll probably want to
control the power to the NST through a Variac, and you'll want to control
the RSG motor with a different Variac, and NEVER allow the RSG speed to go
below ~ 60BPS with power also going to the NST (assuming an async RSG).
