Mike,

The taps are generally on the primary side for different line voltages. For your use, this would become the secondary. You would then have two leads with a C.T. in for the primary (old secondary), and a secondary with multiple taps. The use of a simple VOM is all that's needed to see which winding is which. Hope this helps.

Hello Amps,

      I have a transformer that is suppose to be a
pole pig. The transformer has 4 taps, 3 wire comming
from the paper type windings/layers of the
transformer. Two (2) of the 3 wires from the
transformer, one (1) from the top cloth insulation
white with black stripe; bottom wire white teflon type
insulation and the third (3) wire is attached to a
heavy thick insulated tubing looping diag\vertical
inside the transformer with black insulated 3rd wire
(3) hanging from it.

The transformer is 14" H, 14" W and about 50lbs. Can
anyone help point to a source to identify this
transformer ?
