I pulled a transformer out of an radio's power supply circuit that I had. I was going to use it for protyping. How would one go about testing what it converts from and coverts to?

The physical size of the core will give a rough estimation of VA size.

The black and white are mains leads sryA photo doesn't help that much.
Where were the leads connected? Did any of them go to the mains power?
I'm talking about the actual wound copper. Inside the motor on the motor shaftWhat does that have to do with a motor armature and where/what is the Tfmr?
