Hello,

What voltage are you using ?
It is stated NOT to use it on 120 Volts.
If the voltage is to high the bars will get saturated and get warm.

Hello,

A transformer can be a low voltage AC source for your test.
You will need some amperes for the test.

Power your transformer with the low-voltage output of the "power supply" described at the beginning of this chapter. Do not power your transformer directly from wall-socket voltage (120 volts), as your home-made windings really aren't rated for any significant voltage!
