I found this transformer in some random pieces of an unknown power supply. Clipped the wires and measured up the voltages.
On the left, AC comes in the top 2 terminals.
On the left, bottom three terminals are 32VCT
On the right, bottom 3 terminals are 18VCT
On the right, top two wires are 32V.
What I don't understand is why the top two wires are different. They are made out of it seems some very stiff solid 22AWG wire and covered some a plastic sleeve the slides loosely. They were wired directly to a bridge rectifier that was mounted at the base of the xformer.
Since the flash killed my measurements, it's aproximately 4" x 4" x 2.5". Any idea on the VAs I might expect?
Thanks.
