You mean the sending end transformer, I suppose. Exactly how do you connect the filter? After all, if the CT is grounded, and you introduce a resistor or bead into the grounding wire, where do you connect the 'cold' end of the capacitor? It surely can't go back to ground! -- OOO - Own Opinions Only.
