The one turn generated about 0.3V RMS from a 240V input, although after some
prolonged testing as a CT, I realised I had got the turns calculation some
way out, but thats by-the-way, (it was actually nearer 5000 than 4000).
That suggested the turns ratio as approximately 4000 turns on the 240V mains
winding.
Maybe I am missing something, but given that the ratio of primary to secondary voltage is a linear function of the turn ratio, if you compute : 240 / 0.3 = 800, then 800 is the turn ratio. If the secondary has just one turn, shouldn't the primary have 800 turns ?
