Re: finding/choosing an Isolation trans

A variac does NOT perform the same function, you can't use any autoformer (tapped single winding) type tranny. You need an isolation (discreet primary and secondary windings) tranny. Hammond makes some, and I'm sure others do too. They are often made with male and female AC plugs for easy use with a variety of different gear.

Buy a large enough VA (volt-amp) size, and you'll be all set.
