**EDIT** - After studying this for most of the night I've put what I think might be the coreect wiring solution in the last post of this thread - could someone OK it for me befroe I go ahead and connect it all?
Hi guys, modified this post rather than start a new thread for a new question! My toroidal transformers arrived for my PSU unit and I'm a bit confused about the wiring. Have searched the forum and also googled the specific transformers but can't find what I'm looking for!!! Hope someone on here can help!
I'm in the UK, so working from 230V mains supply.
First transformer is a 115/230V -> 9V twin output
Second transformer is a 115/230V -> 15V twin output
Both transformers, rather than being standard twin input (115V + 115V with 4 input wires in total) have 3 input wires instead and are shown to be wired as below
230V (Brown) -- -- 15V (Red)
-- 0V (Black)
115V (Grey) --
-- 15V (Yellow)
0V (Blue) -- -- 0V (Orange)
Am I right in thinking I simply don't connect the 115V (grey) input wire at all and just use the 230V and 0V?
Can I simply use Red & Black output wires to connect to the 2nd transformer and use the yellow & orange to connect to the bridge rectifier or do I use Red & Orange and connect Black & Yellow, and then make a branch from the red and orange to connect to the bridge rectifier?
With the output wires from 9V transformer, do I just connect into matching colours on the 15V transformer and ignore/connect the other 2 wires?
From here, do I just use the Brown and Blue wires from this transformer to connect to the second bridge rectifier?
IGNORE THE PART BELOW - HAS BEEN ANSWERED!!!
Hi guys, just wanted to check before finishing my wiring for my G7 mic - from the schematics, I see that of the 7 XLR pins from the mic schematic, only 1, 2, 5, 6 and 7 are mentioned in the PSU schematic. I assume therefore that pins 3 and 4 are the ones which are to connect to my 3 pin XLR output to the console, with pin 3 on the 7 pin XLR connecting to pin 2 on the 3 pin XLR (both +)
