Hey Dan,
Wow...there is a lot of information on MWO transformers. The one that

I have a microwave transformer from a 600 W oven. This is very confusing to
me because the power in side has the standard two lead connection. The part
that puzzles me is, the out side has three connections. Which connections
are the ones I should use?

DANGER! WARNING! Microwave oven transformers make lethal voltages.
If you don't know what you are doing (and from the above, you don't),
please don't screw around with them.

[Normally I'd say Google is your friend, but in this case it'll give
you just enough information to kill yourself or some innocent
bystander.]

Good golly this looks like fun! There was another posting on how I only
need to be within inches of it for the volts to just jump out and
attack me.

Are these things really that lethal?
