Scratch my comment on two phase, been a long time ago. One phase takes one coil, 2 phase 2 coils, and 3 phase 3 coils, and you only have one. But you have 2 ins, and 2 outs. Red should be hot, and white ground. So not sure if it will work for what you want, but you can always try it. Do an OHMs test, and see what happens. If all else fails, maybe tear it down, and hope the wire wraps are small enough to use, like I said before.

Use to work for Westinghouse, building transformers, from tiny ones, to big ones on rail cars. Am guessing that it is a 2 phase, being there are 4 leads coming off of it. So it probably won't work as is. But you could tear it down, and if the size wire is small enough, use the wire to make other pickups. There will also probably be some kind of plastic like stuff between the layers, as it was wrapped onto the coil. Hope this helps.

Randy, you probably know as much as I do about it, but if you have a Fluke or other good brand multimeter you can measure the inductance of the coil. I don't know what size wire they wrap those with, but with a magnet in the middle, it should put out a signal. Whether it is loud enough I don't know. Not much of an answer huh.,.,?
