the transformer is running at 460 volts 60Hz US mains frequency the output is then (im guessing) half wave rectified with the diode stack, the output is likely to be equivalent to 30Hz DC
It's a 75KV transformer rated for 1A intermittent duty (one hour at a time, I BELIEVE). The output has been rectified to DC with a diode-stack which (if I recall correctly) was salvaged from an X-Ray transformer.

Fun stuff. I just wish you would put your logo at the top of the picture instead the bottom where the action is.
