Replacement transformer
"David Looser"
The CE mark is required for power supplies sold in Europe and India.
But bringing this back to the original point, the operative word above is
"sold".
** No it is not the " operative word" at all - it would not matter if you
gave them away.
If you put a transformer in a box for your own use you don't need "type
approval" (though if it's dangerous and somebody dies as a result you
might find yourself up on a charge of manslaughter).
** The issue here is NOT what someone might **choose** to do in the
privacy of their own workshop - but rather one of folk instructing
someone via a public forum ( hence ANYONE) to build an unsafe electrical
device that would not be permitted on sale BECAUSE it is unsafe.
I use my real name on usenet, so do you and many others - so are legally
responsible for what we post.
It is just NOT ON for any poster to declare he has no concern for safety
laws as the ****wit OP just did here.

What an utter ass.
