To repeat:
I have checked my list from the Health Dept. again:
VISCONOL and NITROGOL are *SAFE*. I recently came across some old 8"
HDD motors with split-phase caps made by GEC marked ELEKTROL. It was
stated on the caps that they contained no PCBs. I would treat all
other "OLs" as suspect. I have opened a Nitrogol cap and done a flame
test and confirmed the finding. I have since used it in a dielectric
strength test chamber.
