[Amps] Non Detergent motor oil for dummy loads?????

[Jerry K]

Quite a few places make a living refurbishing power company pole and 
ground type transformers, there are two places like that in my area. 
They use a LOT of modern "official" no-PCB hi-temp transformer oil, and 
buy it in 55-gallon drums. They were nice enough to give me a couple of 
gallons of it because they didn't want to mess with the paperwork to 
charge me for what they considered such a tiny amount. Check the phone 
book, maybe one of those places is around your town.
