Default microwave magnetron power rating?

The back of the oven gives microwave(non grill) input and output
power-so which one you pick magnetron by in catalogues(when not
relying on mag designaton number)? Or perhaps catalogue mag
power=HVtransformer output power, or, catalogue mag
power=2*HVtransformer voltage*current?
(example catalogue http://www.wagner.net.au/catalogue/10_Microwave.pdf)
thanks


Simple answer = The one that fits (WES may have different third party brands
as well as the OEM part that will fit depending on what it is.)

The power output is a product of the power supply, not the magnetron. I take
it you've never replaced a magnetron in a microwave oven before? Make sure
you know what you're doing or you might not be posting here again in this
lifetime!
