You talked about changing the secondary with 10-gauge wire - I'm guessing that you've got some understanding of the thicker wire's greater present-carrying capacity, which you would need for an arc welder. The problem right here is that the magnetic core - the steel laminations - even have a maximum magnetic flux carrying capacity, just like the wire has a most current-carrying capacity. The UV bug zapper-zapper manufacturer would have used the lowest-value (smallest) laminated core that met the facility needs of the zapper - that are Much lower than what you will want for an arc welder. You would discover that the secondary current would max out at a too-low worth. One warning - if you happen to do get hold of a microwave transformer, Do not power it up on the bench prime. Microwave transformers are one of many few units that provide each high voltage and comparatively high current - and are pretty much assured to kill you should you get across the HV side. Unsure about bug zappers, but I'd be very cautious with that as properly. |
