I haven't studied this yet, but if your pulse transformer is designed to work into a specific burden like a current transformer - in your case, 300mA - you really shouldn't run it open-cct as there will be a very high voltage developed across the secondary. Can you hang a resistor across the secondary winding so that it will load it up to 300mA?

What sort of current are you passing through the primary winding of your pulse transformer and how many turns has it?
