You pick your burden resistor to make sure it will be in that range.
Yes thats true, only problem is i wont know if the voltage from the CT will exceed that or not until i test it at full output, although i believe i should be OK if my coil stays below 1000A.

you should be able to calculate your peak primary current, or at least have a very educated guess as to what you are aiming for.

Yes, well ive been working on what wintesla is giving me and what others are getting with similar spec'd coils.
Im not 100% up with tesla coil theory so am using computer models.
