RE: PS choke voltage ratings
Posted by Triode_Kingdom on January 4, 2017 at 06:52:02:
"That's the potential difference across the choke limit."
That's not correct. The voltage rating of a choke is the maximum rated continuous DC voltage between the windings and the case. Hi-pot is a stress test intended to detect failures in the production process. It should never be used as a measure of the transformer's voltage rating in normal operation.
