Yes, Tim. It is. Connect the two in phase to get 15KV at 60ma.
It helps if the two are the same brand and config. Typically just connecting
the HV leads in parallel will do it. If the spark is minimal, reverse just
one lead.
The input is just paralleled.
I plan to do exactly that for the three 15/60s I have to get 15/180.

Be sure to use Terry's NST protection circuit to keep them alive.

Hi All, Is it possible to hook two 15kv/30ma transformers together to
get a bigger bang(longer bolts of lightning) ? Tim
