Hi, I have a question about the polarity of secondary windings on a step down transformer.
Both secondaries are 15v but my circuit needs 15-0-15 so I'm assuming I can just connect in series to emulate a centre-tapped winding. Does it matter which end of the secondaries are connected together for the zero connection? I realise this is elementary stuff but I'm lacking a bit of knowledge and understanding. Because this is AC there's no polarity so I just have four colour-coded wires for the two pairs of 15v but no indication of how these relate to the actual physical windings laid out on the secondary core. Does this matter or can I just connect together any way round ? Thanks for any help.
