RE: [TCML] Primary # of turns on a 10KVA 14400 pole pig



Sorry..........A correction needed to the following  .................. 

_____________

" This was the main reason that in the end I rewound my core using the same
configuration and wire gauge as the original. "
_____________

I rewound the Primary as it had originally been. The original single
secondary (wound around the primary on the centre leg) became two secondarys
on each outside leg, for reasons explained on the page.

Subject: [TCML] Primary # of turns on a 10KVA 14400 pole pig

Hi All,

 

Does anyone know the usual primary turns (240v side) on a 10KVA pig and the
wire gauge? I have a dry core with 36.875"^2 area and am looking at Finn
Manner's transformer project page.
http://www.hvtesla.com/radartransformer.html This is a heavy core! According
to Finn, turns equal K=1.6 for 60hz (K* E)/Area so(1.6*240)/36.875" to fully
magnetize the core.  This would be only 10.41 turns. Yikes. Is that right?

 

Thanks,

Jim Mora
