In sure this has been discussed previously but I can't find any info (bit more difficult using tapatalk).

What's the general consensus on adding additional windings to toroidal transformers???

I have a 2 x 12v 30va that I'm using for the analogue output stage in my CDP. As I wanted to remove the original transformer , I needed an independent 4.3vAC winding. I tried a few wraps of thin insulated wire on the toroid and worked out that I needed about 46 wraps. I spaced them evenly around the core and got what I wanted.

I'm sure I've broken many cardinal rules but I'm very kean to learn.......

You can see the white insulated additional winding in the picture :D
