Hello, and might I begin by congratulating David Jones on a most entertaining and informative youtube channel.
I have purchased a variable transformer from a local electronics supply store and I am fairly new to electronics and I have been unable to find the answers to my questions on the internet.
I have watched a few videos on the type of variac I have but cannot grasp them well enough to understand the wiring diagram on the variac I bought. The diagram and wiring interface is precisely the same as the one found at this link but I doubt it is the same manufacturer:

My applications will be very rough, no fine electronics will be attached to this as I suspect it is fairly low quality and I don't trust it. The unit I bought looks exactly the same as the above link and I suspect it is a china knockoff of some sort or another.
Thank you for your time and effort
