The transformer's wiring now looks like this:\n\n\n | 220V |\n | |\n|~~~~|~~~~| |~~~~|~~~~|\n5 1 3 6 2 4\n| |\n|__________________|\n\n\nIf the drawing is messed up, here is the gist of it: The primary \nconsists of two (parallel/separate) windings, one with odd, one with \neven numbering (3-5 and 4-6) with the center of the winding named 1 and \n2. Currently 2 and 5 are shorted and 220V comes in at 1 and 6. So \ncurrent flows from 1 to 5 to 2 to 6 and vice versa.\n\nTo rewire to 110V I guess I just use any of the combination 1-3, 1-5, \n2-4 or 2-6. But I am just curious why the 220V wiring was done over two \ncoils, not one? Was this factory standard or has my unit been modified \nwith a different transformer?\n\nOnce I get the control unit powered up it time to test the rotator and \nsee if it needs any maintenance (probably will, because it hasn't been \nused for a long while).\n\n", "attachments": [] }
