custom built transformer question
#2

Let's see...760 + 76 (which is 10%) = 836 which is pretty close to 840.

The voltage will drop somewhat under load, so I wouldn't be too concerned...yet. It is what the voltages measure out to be under load that will make the difference.

Who did you contract with to build the transformer? On the few occasions I have had to have custom wound transformers made, I used Heyboer Transformers. Expensive, but worth it. And I specified 130 volt primaries, to more than make up for today's higher line voltages. Never a problem with any of them.
