Heh. About a year and a half ago, I pulled the
transformer out of
an NMI power supply. 4kV at 1.5A rating.
That sucker could blow fuses really well. ;)
Holy moley!! I can imagine... :-)
Could you please post some pics of this monster? I haven't seen one
rated this much before...
Unfortunately, I don't have a picture of it, and I got rid of it a while
ago when moving offices. It was a black cube roughly 8" on a side, and
weighed in at 80lbs or so.
Soudns rather small to me. 4kV at 1.5A is 6kVA (!). That means it's going
to draw nearly 60A from a 110V supply. Are you sure that's the rating?
I have a 6kV 200mA transformer somwhere. That's about a 12 " cube. And
it's about 1/5 the power rating of your transformer.
