Hi Gang,

I have a large and heavy power supply transformer
that is part of a high current power supply project
that was featured in 73 magazine back in 1973. It
was started by a ham radio operator and was never
finished. I am going to finish it, if I can. I am
trying to identify the transformer leads. This is
for a 12 volt, 40 to 60 amp output. Here are the markings:

This transformer was made by ADC and is marked 541-010 REV H.
There is a marking on it that says 3-19470 and what I think
is a date code of 7438. There are terminal connections on one
side that are numbered 1 - 6. On the other side the connections
are numbered 7 - 14. I need to know the connection scheme for
this transformer so I can put it to use. I contacted who I
thought was the manufacturer "ADC" for information, and that
did not help.

Are you sure this is a power transformer? Sounds more like a matching
transformer, of some type, to me.

Take some ohm readings. The primary should be around 100 ohms or so for 110
volt operation. The secondary will be much less of course.
