WARNING: do not use this transformer for mains isolating,
because its insulation is not capable of handling this. It is intended
to prevent earth loops arising or undesired signals being applied
to the input of an appliance. For instance, a tape recorder is to be linked to a sound card in a computer which has an S/PDIF
(Sony/Philips Digital Interface Format); the computer is not connected
to protective earth (which in the UK is next to impossible
and certainly not advisable).
