Title: Power Transformer test out of spec (barely)
Post by: Jamus on May 17, 2016, 06:29:15 AM

I'd just like to get some reassurance before proceeding in the build.

Incoming voltage measured 125.4v
Input wiring completed based on that range (115-130v)

Voltage across PT terminals 7-8= 198v (just within 5% margin of error)
terminals 9-10= 6.7v
terminals 11-14= 6.7v
terminals 12-13= 6.7v

These 3 above values are just outside of the spec 6.3+/- 5%

Is there something I could do differently to bring these values down or okay to proceed?
Thanks!
Jamus

You're OK to proceed.
