100 - 120 VAC
NOTE : You must remember that with the current flowing to the Primary Valve Coil through the Diode,
you are getting 30 cycle instead of 60 cycle current at the coil of the Primary Valve. Because of this,
your volt meter will only read about 1/2 the voltage that is going to the coil. The change in the cycle of
current does not effect the efficiency of an electromagnetic coil.
