Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: Harrison Lathe and Gecko's

Hi Dave,

As I have said in earlier posts, only the drivers are being feed from this
large transformer @ 61v AC 20 amp and 19v AC 5amp. Both these voltages then
go through rectifiers and some huge caps. While I thank you for your reply,
you haven't answered the question or am I not reading it right.

If I move the wire from the 415v tap to the 440v tap will the smoke come out
or will it have the effect, I think, and reduce the output voltage to a
level that makes it possible to used Gecko's.

Regards,

Terry
