Hello,
I would like to use a 12V step-down transformer as a step up to 1200V. That is, I want to apply 120VAC into secondary and take my output from primairy. This should give me 1200VAC at the output. The transformer is ratted for 10A on secondary. Which means that it's primairy can handle up to 1A. My load on primairy will be 0.5A. This means that the secondary thats connected to 120VAC will have a load of 5A. Is it acceptable to use a step-down transformer in this configuration ?
Thanks
