Hello Terry,
Is there still such a thing? None around here. Where I lived before there used to be a "motor rewinding" business. There I could purchase all sorts of wires, cores etc. The guys were very knowledgeable. In the mid 80's this old barn was suddenly razed and they built a gas station. Sigh...
Regards, Joerg
Hi Joerg, and do you test them by deja-vu as well?
In the UK there's bugger all useful little local businesses like that anymore.
The rot set in during the 80s when Margaret Thatcher's conservative government decreed that the UK didn't need manufacturing and we could survive on the service economy. It's been downhill ever since.

just ask your local transformer manufacturer for some. He (or she, or it) will probably just give you some.
Cheers Terry
Hello Graham,
A former neighbor who grew up in Wales said that the national dish over there is now "Chicken Tikamasala". It used to drive her mom crazy when she said that.

Hello Cbarn,
ROFL!
No, but it becomes as routine as changing our furnace filter.
Regards, Joerg
