Description

This listing is for a Vintage Type W 5 MT Variac Autotransformer made by General Radio Company, Concord Mass USA.
All information I have is in this description, please read....
One side common to line and load Line 120V 50-60 cycles Load 0-140V US Pat 2949592. Dial reads 0 to 140V volts out for volts in, so technically it steps down and up. To test I plugged it into the wall, plugged my toaster into it, turned it on my toaster light went on immediately, as I turned the dial, the toaster coils starting to light up at about 120V. This unit is in excellent condition, showing slight wear for age, has been kept inside, not in a garage, very clean.
