Hi Bob

I went through my old ham radio books and I have a book titled "PRINCIPLES OF RADIO" reprinted 6 times between 1929 and 1945, there is a chapter called, Properties of Alternating Current Circuits, goes for about 52 pages and I am sure what you are looking for is there for you. You may be able to view the book in a library and if that does not work I could copy the pages as long as it would not infringe on copyright.

Cheers

When we trained with the Ontario Regiment they used
19 sets in all their tanks and had about half a dozen sets
in their main building. All these sets had a power supply with
a direct feed from a 120 volt plug. You plugged them into the wall socket.
It looked like a normal power supply. I have seen one since then at a show many years ago. But not lately.
Keep looking. You'll get one.
