Only a handful of sparrows have the raptors (for some value of a hand ;>). Corbin switched to Curtis (144v nominal in a 156v nominal system) then to some beta Curtis 156v nominal (smaller handful) and to a Kilovac unit (which I think is no longer available, as Tyco downsized their catalog). >From the analog ampmeter (which seems to read low vs. the emeter) I very seldom see more than 200a, and most typically 50-100a.
