No sawing. You shove a flat blade screwdriver between the output cable strain relief and the cover and pry it up. This breaks the weld which you then work around until the lid pops off. Very little plastic deformation which then glues back together in a snap after the mod.

My statement was simply that the mains isolation was maintained because of the construction of the transformer. For transformers that have split primaries above and below the secondary, I would be reluctant to use them after modification in any case. Where the split primary linear power thread uses transformers outside of their intended application, this modification mantains all of the original creapage distances. > Also, this is not strictly still UL recognized since you modified it, > but it's close enough.
