Oscilloscope hooked to SSG ?

[prometei]

HI ever1. I've bought an oscilloscope and was wondering how does one hook it up to a Bedini SSG circuit?

just connect the scope to one of your coil windings.

The oscilloscope is a fancy voltmeter. It gives you a graphical display of voltage, over a period of time. It is especially useful to monitor repetitive oscillations of voltage. Current can also be monitored by using a current probe,a Rogowski coil, or a monitoring resistor of known low ohmage. The "time base" of the scope is adjustable so you can "freeze" even very fast repetitive oscillations.
So you can "hook up" the oscilloscope anywhere you want to monitor voltages, that may change over (usually short) time periods.
They are essential instruments for evaluating the performance of electronic and electromagnetic "free energy" devices, because they allow much more accurate estimations of POWER ( because cheap DMMs don't take duty cycle and waveshape into consideration).

just connect the scope to one of your coil windings.

WATCH YOUR VOLTAGES.

The spikes can be big. Set the voltage/division to the highest
setting. You might want to put a set of resistors in series with
your probe. You can get attentuating leads, with a lump in
the cable which reduces the voltage 500 times.

If your oscilloscope has a low MHZ rating, the spike may be
too blurred to see at all. (The PC software scopes where the
probe goes into your sound card are not likely to deliver for
this application.

Thanks ever1 for yo input. I'm going to try connecting the scope first with some resistors in series. I'm not sure though where I would get more relevant info, on the input coil or on the output coil.
BTW I've got a OWON PDS5022 scope, not that expensive and pretty easy to use.
