[QUOTE="Den123, post: 991283, member: 13454"] Guys: Don?t mess with the primary. It is already sorted out in terms of the VA rating designed for the transformer. If the V A is right, leave the primary alone. The volts per turn, conductor size, flux density, core size /area are all sorted. Wind any secondary onto it that you like. From the initial chat, I assume the current is low, so you can use almost anything that comes to hand. Even if the wire is 1mm^2 thick, you might battle to get it neatly wound, but the transformer really don?t mind. Transformers, unlike speaker cables ( mains cables......) and gold fuses, are not great mysteries, just fantastic hardy workhorses. Do it. You will learn. You will have fun. You will understand more. You will be a little proud of you effort. Go for it. [/QUOTE]
