So if you're measuring 1uH (ish) and the correct value is 100uH (ish) thats a mutual coupling, M , of 0.99. Not bad. Wonder if 250 MVA 400kV 3 phase supergrid transformers have a better M value. Andy

Mike, I just measured a known good Decca output transformer with a Peak Atlas LCR meter. The 3.2mH is correct for the monitor winding, the other windings should be a bit above 106uH each (I got value

Mike, I had this fault, I believe that it is not uncommon. It can be caused by a nearby lightning strike or by severe mis-tuning in either case a short develops due to a voltage breakdown of the insu

Thanks for the suggestion Andy. I did that already using an Atlas LCR meter (one of the best bits of test gear I ever bought), but didn't believe the result. It showed what looked to me like very low

Disconnect all windings and measure the inductance. If the transformer is OK, the L will be high - with Xl many times the operating impedance. A shorted turn - which is what it looks as if you may ha

Yes, definitely. If the transformer were absolutely perfect all flux would be linked, and your shorted turn intercepts everything. So you are transforming a few milliohms though the turns ratio which

I have a fault on my Decca 5501 LF transmitter. It appears that the main output transformer / combiner is faulty. Each Tx module takes current when connected to the transformer, even when the output
