Default Power supply

#2 is a current transformer. The wires cut off at the top were the
output sensing connectors. Maybe two sets - to a meter and to a controller.
It appears that power comes in from the right - through fuses ?
goes through a contactor and fires up the three phase transformer.

The secondary of the three phase transformer is sent to the bridge
of Thyristors - Likely SCR's the small wire are the control gate and
a reference wire. That is a great mount of power being rectified there.

Turns out I have a power supply for my Matsurra bedmill. After

A few questions. Each of the twelve diodes has a pair of wires, 24
connections on the terminal strip. I don't know the function here and
if anything needs to be connected.

Is the part labeled 1 an isolation transformer? If so, should DC- be
grounded?

Can the part labeled 2 be used to read current? There are four leads,
how would they be connected. The part says "Nana Electronics NNC-05AF"
