Does voltage rating matter for the PI trimmer?
I need to source a PI trimmer and was wondering what you guys use. In my low plate skyliner, I remember that the PI trimmer had 413v on one side and 406v on the other side. That trimmer is a Piher with 10k738m on it, but there are no web pages available with info on that model at all when I searched google. If 400+ volts are going through the trimmer, what voltage rating do I put in there?

The voltage drop across the trimmer is only appx. 10 volts - so you don't need to worry about the +400 voltage reference to ground.jcsifu wrote:I need to source a PI trimmer and was wondering what you guys use.
