In another place you asked "Why are the Centre Taps of the Primary and the Secondary of the transformer connected?"
It is to prevent the Secondary floating at an offset from the primary.
Or at least that is what I was told when I used to repair UK Military Kit that had Trembler Inverters.
(Like Neutral is bonded to Earth at the Power Station in the UK (other countries may do things differently))

It does help. Thank you.
You're entirely welcome.
Thank You, for a thread about your restoration that, I and my wife, have had great enjoyment from.
We will almost certainly never meet, but "have a drink on me!"
Got the component parts ordered that I don't have on the shelf, ordered a bunch of tested 12V tubes.
Hopefully in the next few weeks this might begin to emit some noises (other than pop, crackle, RRRRRRRR, zort or any that it really shouldn't make).
