disregard this thread. I just ripped apart a transformer and shorted the line common with the center tap, and it works fine.

I didn't really specify very good now that I read it. The sensors that I am using to measure the original line voltage are going to be powered from this dual polarity supply I am creating. It is essentially a loop, in terms of block diagrams. Maybe I am not understanding transformers thoroughly...

I'm designing a set of voltage and current sensors for use with a solar system. I have developed all of the circuits, but it requires both positive and negative voltage supplies. I want to use the classic design using a center tapped transformer with two regulators. But I'm not sure what will...
