I need some transformer solder terminals?

[gary350]

I finished winding my 48 volt transformer today now I need some transformer solder terminals. Some transformers have metal solder type terminals glued into the winding covering. On ebay the new transformers now have plastic terminal blocks mounted to the laminations. Anything will work where do I buy some?

I did an ebay search but found nothing I might be looking up the wrong name?

My secondary winding is #14 enamel coated copper rated 48VAC 15 Amps with CT.

Simple ring or spade wire terminals will do fine. Anchoring them is the issue. I've taken heavy gauge (12-14) solid bare wire in short (1"-2") pieces, crimp or solder them in with the conductor, and use them as the anchor. Bend this anchor stub whichever way gives you best strength. G.H. <<<)))

Most are made into the transformer bobin. Why not just use stranded wire like some of them do?
Sometimes called Flying Leads.

Radio Shck sells the European (DIN) Terminal Strips. See https://www.radioshack.com/search/index.jsp?kwCatId=&kw=terminal strip&origkw=terminal+strip&sr=1 I like the ones with the wire protector which is a small piece of metal that clamps down on the wire. Then they work for solid and stranded conductors.

Just need to put it on the transformer some how.

just wondering why u wound ur own transformer, instead of just buying a 48 V transformer?

and what exactly is a 48 V transformer? arent transformers spec'd by 2 voltages (primary and secondary)??
