So, you have understood what I mean. :) I'll keep that in mind if someone brings me a 600KW transformer to check :-)) I think I would have wasted a thought at what would happen if I charge a coil for three minutes and force it to discharge in the fraction of a second... A bank of varistors could have caught the current or so... Greets, Kiste -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "jallib" group.
