[Amps] Variac repairs

[Rick Stealey]

 The question is, do winding resistance, 
> core losses, etc,  add a large enough load to fry the Variac in front of the 
> transformer?

No.  Just think about it, the variac is good for 5 amps continuous.
That's over 500 watts.  If your 220 transformer was drawing 500
watts you'd notice the heat.
