Jan 15, 2016 at 14:48 comment added Bill Michell I can try measuring the current at the switch when I close the circuit there, sure. I was trying to avoid finding 15 meters of cable if there were other steps I could try first.

Jan 15, 2016 at 14:35 comment added Daniel Griscom Can you measure the current across the switch when you close it? Can you run (external) wires from each side of the transformer to near one of the bells and see what the mutual voltages are?
