Re: Asbestos in Pye B16T?
I think with regard to mains EHT, I would suggest reading everything that you can find online about it, including the theory behind why it can be deadly and why flyback-derived stuff isn't, and then embarking on any work assuming that you don't know enough about it to guarantee your safety. Also read the story in 'Obsession' about the experienced engineer who still came a cropper through a momentary lapse. Not to suggest not doing it, but to fully appreciate the risk- advice such as putting one hand in your pocket is widespread, and in most instances good advice, but with those voltages and those current levels it won't help you. That said, I would still love a D16T..
