Egnater Power Transformer problems

[jnwagner]

]I'm installing a new power transformer, model EG-TWK15-P/U I just received from Mercury Magnets replacing the original equipment xsfrmr.

I was hoping someone could help me on the wiring connections

The original primary side has Blk,Wht, Blu, Brn, by following your schematic included from Mercury I believe I should connect the mercury Brn/wht and Wht to the wire the Blk from the original was connected(not actually because I am bypassing the 3way voltage swich so I'm going directly to the red wire connected to the on/off switch)

And I should connect the Blk and Brn wires from the mercury xsfrmr to the white wire connected to the on/off switch.

I am capping off the Blk/wht wire from the mercury xsfrmr primary as per your schematic and instructions

Here's my main problem IF I'm correct above;

The original xsfrmr has 6 wires for the secondary, 2 each of Grn, Red, Blk
The mercury has 2 each of Grn and Red, only one Blk and one grn/blk center tap

I'm guessing I should hook the two reds to the two reds.

My first inclination was to hook up the 2 grns to the 2 grns but upon further inspection I'm not sure

And even if that was right that leaves 2 black wires that were connected to the original xsfrmr

Has anybody done this swap and know the answers to wiring hook up?

I have included pics to show you where I'm at

the wires might not be couler coded on the amp you must know what thare are canter tap is ground the high voltage bridge pack stand by heaters when you get it installed hook a meg meter to the plug check for shorts good parts contact me if you want
