#155981 - OFF load ??
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Andy Neil said:

But, if this transformer really is supposed to be designed for this application, that really shouldn't be necessary!


Too right it shouldn't - What kind of load are you putting on the transformer ? For voltage measurements I would expect it to be damn all. If its getting hot virtually unloaded, its faulty whatever the manufacturer tries to say. Only very poor quality transformers get "hot" off load.
