Przem's Phase Linear 700 Series II White Oak Conversion

Just a test fit before drilling the mounting screw holes then solder.
 
Thanks guys...just a file and some timer
...gotta do lawn wars here in a bit and then tomorrow get the truck and trailer ready tomorrow for the river Monday.
 
Joe, with Przem needind a fan outlet, and the available oulet being the old AC mains in hole, I'm gonna have to go past all that low end input section. Is it best to go with 2 conductor and twist it, or go with a shielded pair?? And what do I do with the shield...?? I'm gonna tap 120 off the PRIMARY and run it. It is configured for 240 mains. When rinning the fan and essentially having a lot of unbalanced voltage returning through the neutral what effect will that have?

I would use the shielded pair and tie the shield to the chassis ground at both the start and finish of the shielded wire run.

if that doesn't work, as an alternative, could u run a really really small torroidal mounted in the shroud of the fan.
it wouldn't have to be very big as the current draw would be minimal, and the x-former would isolate any line noise generated by the fans.
just thinking out loud again…. but…. i just thought i'd throw it out there so u guys can jump all over me… ;)
 
The fan voltage will be 120 volts.

Looking at the schematic for the power transformer, we can assume that the secondary voltages don't change when the amp is configured for either primary voltage. That makes sense, because the amp needs about +/- 100 VDC on the rails and that voltage has to be the same whether we run 120 or 240 VAC sources. It can't be or the amp would go up in smoke. So the voltage at the fan outlet should also remain 120 VAC.

Yep, the question was whether the unbalanced voltage from the fan usage would trash the neutral circuit....
 
I work with 3 phase mostly, just wondering if the same phenomenon is present here.When you take 3 phase 480 say, and single phase some 120 out of a couple legs your ground current goes up , does that happen here?
 
But, if ya think about it, the 120 is coming off the primary so the secondaries are transformer isolated.....
