In Reply to: RE: Backward Power Transformer posted by Paul Joppa on September 21, 2017 at 21:24:04:
the secondary's rated voltage is specified under full rated secondary current, with voltage drop in secondary's resistance and core loss factored in. As a result, turns ratio is not 1+1:1.04, but rather something like 1+1:1.35. That's why when turned backwards, the transformer puts out 91+91V.
