Default Re: Early Unusual Transformer Design

Managed to sleeve the old wiring and epoxied it down. It was a struggle getting the iron winding back down but done it now. The winding continuity and insulation resistance measures good for all windings. So I just have to see how it works on a live test. It would be interesting to measure the efficiency and look at the iron and copper losses compared to a modern transformer. I’m guessing efficiency wasn’t a consideration and it probably only supplied 20mA

Thanks regards Chris
