Default Re: Asbestos in Pye B16T?

I've just checked, the B16T does have a mains EHT supply.

Unless you are very skilled with TV servicing, I would NOT even consider restoring this set until you have several years' worth of experience under your belt. Mains EHT is lethal if touched and, judging by some comments above, it's easy to come into contact it. Heed the advice above, don't ignore it: Mains EHT *will* kill if touched! No ifs, no buts, no second chances.

So if you are not experienced in TV servicing, then I'd stay away from servicing this TV.

Cheers,
