Industrialcraft Problem

[PoisonofPhoenix]

I tried to transform the ouput energy from the mfsu to "normal" voltage, but it explod every time

How can i tranform the high voltage to voltage that the for example the electric furnace need?

What explodes? Are the transformers the right way round?

Okay, here's your problem:

First off, you don't need any HV transformers, that's only for translating EV (513-just over 2k EU) to HV (512).

Second off, you need a MV and a LV transformer . Make sure the three-dot side is configured properly. They can be immediately adjacent with no need for wiring.

LV will pour out the other side.

MV transformer with the red dot at the MFSU "High Voltage" side, then an LV Transformer with the red dot connected to one of the other sides of the MV transformer, connect up LV cable and machines to any of the other sides

Thanks man you helped me so much, it works now

If you want to get even fancier you could hook up to 4 lv transformers to the mv transformer since every transformers does one conversion
So 512 becomes 4 x 128 and every lv transformer will convert 1 packet so with 4 lv's you get 16 x 32 eu packets and the best part is if you hook these lv's to the same cable you can have 512 Eu/t supplying 32 eu packets over a copper cable

Pleasure, the "use the three dots on the HV side" talk confused the crap out of me too using sphax back in the day!!!! Looking at your pic you also only need a redstone signal when Upscaling the voltage eg LV-MV...[DOUBLEPOST=1372708148][/DOUBLEPOST]

Not quite, an LV transformer can handle 128EU/t in 32EU packets and an MV can handle 512EU/t in 128EU packets... Makes sense because if an LV transformer can only handle 32EU/t you wouldnt be able to put 128EU packets into it. Or it doesnt, IC2 power is fairly retarded TBH...

 

[Netherus]

Lv transformers actually convert 1 128 eu packet per tick splitting it up in 4 32 eu packets cables don't mind how much eu /t runs through them just the packet size you can even power a matter fab at 8192 Eu/t through a copper cable if you go all crazy with down transforming

Haha we both saying the same thing from different directions!!! and yes you can put as much EU/t through a cable as long as the packet size is right... Retarded system IMHO

 

[WaterTipper]

MFSU → MV-Transformer → LV-Transformer → Electric Furnace.
The HV-Transformer isn't necessary, and you don't need the cables to connect them as long as you point the input and output sides right.

Btw, your wiring is inefficient.
The best wire type for each voltage, apart from glass fibre, is:
ULV (<5 eu/p) - tin cable
LV - copper cable
MV - gold cable
HV - HV cable
EV - HV cable
