Hi Karl-Arne,

could you quote some more brands of microwaves ovens, having mentioned 
transformers and it would be helpful year of manufacturing.
Here we go, buying your old microwave ovens for peanuts!

This particular transformer was a special brand of surplus HV transformer,
coming out of the first generation microwave ovens from the Swedish 
manufacturer Husqvarna.

It had a 2200 V 1,1 A CCS secondary winding and several primary windings
(220/440V if i remember correctly), and it was not of the saturated magnetic 
circuit type
that become standard in later designs of microwave ovens.

Three of those in delta-wye connection with a six-pulse rectifier made an 
almost perfect
three-phase HV PS for 4-1000A's in parallel.

Today's microwave oven transformers are not directly suited for HV supply 
service,
unless they are modified.

half.

Is anybody building small amp using microwave oven power transformer?
How those transformer are made and what kind of winding they have?
