At that point I go in to second gear and speed up the winding!
We had some 3.3KV ACB's, god were they slow to wind in. But the set up we had it was always done dead. each ACB weighed 15CWT! This is the only photo I have of one after the original ACB had been replaced with a VCB. The truck is near 5" 6' high. View attachment 13255
The biggest laugh was I found the original operating manual, it showed an Eric Morecambe look alike just trundling the truck around, in real life two of us would be going purple around the gills heaving and straining to shift it.
