[Amps] Should a blower run after amp shutdown?

I never saw that happen with a constant voltage transformer (transducer).
Are you sure yours is based on transformer/choke and not an inverter?

However, how do you measure AC with a moving coil meter?

Another caution, this time about constant voltage transformers.  I had 
one of these and tried to use it to stabilise the mains to a signal 
generator to improve drift.  It sort of worked but the main problem with 
it was that it distorted the mains waveform quite badly, sufficiently so 
that a normal moving coil meter read very inaccurately
