Transformers testing

I am trying to reproduce results of the open circuit and closed circuit transformers test. But the current rating are much higher than I would expect.

120vac main connected to a 4:1 transformer;

Open Circuit - 6a

Closed Circuit - 6kA

This should be like 6ma and 6A

I made the circuit public here... any ideas?

Wow! great answer!

Ok, so ignore the loads and use the function/effects. I'm perfectly fine with that answer. Just needed to know I wasn't doing something wrong.
