Electronics technicians and others who get military training learn that
radar units can hold a deadly charge long, long after power is cut off.
It's standard operating procedure to "drain" the voltage off before
starting any repair work. Probably true of other devices as well.
Your caution is well-justified. This is one area in which ignorance
can be deadly.

Usually, I am not easily scared- but fussing around with high voltage
is one of my sticking points. I have done a little neon signage, so
have been around HV transformers, but boy, it seems to me there is
little forgiveness there. I have great respect for high voltage. The
other time I got scared was when I was carrying a g-pick on a mountain
top in the High Sierra when a thunderstorm came up. High voltage gives
me the willies.
But then again, AC is said to be more deadly.
Your safety lecture would be appropriate here, thanks.

Here, Neville,
Just for your consternation:

Careful, now.
Very good indeed. Well said, and I understand it.
I have some high voltage sign transformers, Not sure of the
output, but I can find out.
I suggest that Neville leave it alone, until he fully understands
Ohms Law !
I have not got around to my Safety Lecture yet, but am working on
it.
To be thinking about....................
A resistor or a diode can kill you. Many think NOT, but I will
tell you how.
Please, .......... do not disagree with me, ........... Yet !
<grin>
After you see the facts, then I welcome the disagreement.
Of course knowing you, .......... you will disagree now and later.
Be my guest !
