I would use I single piece,If you tie two wires together there will be a
"bump" which would most likely act as a discharge point producing a "hot
spot" which will cause the secondary to fail and you probably have
discharges from the bump to the primary or from the bump to the topload and
vise-vera.....not a good thing :(

Hope this helps,
