Re: [TCML] Can i use an NST as ballast ?



Yes, you can use shorted NST's for current limiting. The more power you need, the more shorted NSTs in parallel.

Hi,

I got this HV transformer i want to try out but it needs some current limiting.

Left in the picture.

http://i1212.photobucket.com/albums/cc446/tesladude/trans1.jpg

Specs:

55pounds
260vin
14.3Kvout
1200VA

DCresistance:
Primary: 0.2 ohm
Secondary: 882 ohm

The extra wirering is for cable sheilds and temp.

Could my 8Kv 60ma NST work as an ballast and what would the current be?
I probably need to know the inductances for that ?
