    Distorted residential power, only at night?

    Seven houses on one 25 KVA transformer ? Where I live in the midwest your house has to have 100A service 100A*240V=24Kva.

    Circuit Blowing Bulbs - Overpowered?

    A transformer rated at 48V 300VA at nominal input will have a nominal output at 6.25A. The no load voltage you mention of 52V is about right as 300VA transformers typically have regulation (Vnoload/Vfull load) of 8 to 10%. As the load is increased from 0 to 6.25A the output voltage will decrease...

    Puzzling Pulse Transformer output

    I belive the transformer you are using has an ungapped core, so each time you pulse it you increase the gauss level until it reaches saturation. To use a single ended(unipolar) pulse as an input to a transformer the transformer core must have a gap to prevent saturation or a very long off-time...
