 Hi James, glad to here you as G6PUR, name here is Rich or kd0zz, been
on the air since 1978. Now to your question ---
A MOV is also varistor or a two-electrode semiconductor device having a
voltage-dependent nonlinear resistance; its resistance drops as the
applied voltage is increased. Also known as voltage-dependent resistor.
So as the spike back voltage gets too high this string will protect the
transformer.

Rich, from the middle of Missouri or kd0zz

	I say from the middle of Missouri because there are people on
this list with the same first name but they are much smarter about coils
than I am.

Thanks for your response ..Rich & DJ et al


  But what are MOV ... I do have some experience in electrics and 
electronics ... Radio Ham G6PUR qualified 1982 .. worked the space
shuttle !

I have seen these over lapping hoop symbols before .. and I once saw an 
explanation but have not been able to find it again ... I do have a few
text 
books on electric but it's not there .......

I am learning some of the Americanisms .. my baby brother  moved to 
Vacaville CA.about 16 months ago
I think crazy glue is cyano acrylate ( UK - super glue)
I do not know what ( your) mineral oil is  ... I use liquid paraffin  (
an 
old remedy for constipation and the basis of most baby oils and some 
medicated creams)
