Let's not get too hasty and complacent here. In the early-mid 70s before the
PCB transformer notoriety, in Detroit for sure, many amateurs were having
their dummy loads filled with transformer oils. The guys in Salvage at Detroit

they
were PCB oils since the PCB "problem" didnt raise its ugly head until later in

I am sure their were many other utility people that offered the same
"service".
