Re: [TCML] help! dual mot power not working

Looks like you have the primaries in series, they should be in parallel.

Then correct the phasing if needed by reversing the wires on one
primary.

The primaries should be in parallel, and the secondaries in series.

Cheers,

I havent got a clue why this setup isn't producing anything.here are some 

pictures of the setup: --http://i56.tinypic.com/5yu348.jpg--http://i54.tinypic.com/jipauq.jpg--http://i54.tinypic.com/ymbsx.jpgThe 

MOT's are wired in series, The two cores are connected and grounded,The two high 

voltage leads should be making ~4kv ~250ma arcs right?I get nothing. The plug 

might as well not even be in.I have also tried it with the two cores not 

grounded. Same results.I have also tried in parallel. It works. I get huge big 

current sparks. But the voltage would stillonly be 2000 so this is no good 

because this will be a tesla coil power supply.
