Transformer P/N 32-7887 - am I up a creek?
#6

Not a bad idea, having a new one built with only a 115 volt primary, but keeping the hardware for appearance's sake.

I forgot to mention, on every transformer I had Heyboer wind for me, I asked for a 130 volt primary, to compensate for today's higher line voltages of 125+ volts.

The line voltage where I live stays pretty steady at 125. When I lived in Evansville, it would often go as high as 128.

The "how do I post a picture" question gets asked a lot...enough that I wrote up a couple tutorials on the process which may be found in the "Phorum 101" section which most people miss because you have to scroll all the way down to the bottom of the home page to find it. Hmmm...maybe I should move it to the top of the home page... Icon_twisted
