hetmann Posted April 29, 2002 Share Posted April 29, 2002 I am interested in refurbing some tube gear and would like to wire up a variac to bring the voltage up slowly. I bought this from a fellow who has no idea. I was wondering if anyone here might be able to help me. ------------------ Klipschorns and Moondogs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtkinney Posted April 29, 2002 Share Posted April 29, 2002 I have not seen one exactly like yours, but I think you would hook the line to terminals 2 (black wire) and 4 (white wire) at the top. The variable output will be hooked to terminals 3 (black wire) and 4 (white wire). The wire colors indicate black-hot and white-common. You can sacrifice an extension cord to get the plug and recepticle ends. Check the voltage with a voltmeter before testing the amp. Also, make sure the grounds are all connected. Good luck.
