x 4079 Ignition Coil B2 Quantities.

Primary
Resistance, by inst. 98 1.5 ranges = .482 w.
Impedance, using Royce ammeter and Weston milli-ammeter as voltmeter = 3.11 w.
∴ Reactance at 50~ = 3.08 w
and Inductance = .00979 hy.{Tom Haldenby - Plant Engineer}

Secondary
Resistance, by inst. 98 on 90 volts d.c., 150 volt range & as milliammeter = 9,300 w.
Impedance by Weston inst (a.c.) with resistance for volts, and alone for milli-amps = 19,800 w.
∴ Reactance at 50~ = 17,480 w.
and Inductance = 55.6 hy.{Tom Haldenby - Plant Engineer}
