  • Abstract
    When Polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) were first introduced on the market as dielectric fluids, they were heralded as a major safety breakthrough. Fire safety codes demanded that PCB transformers and capacitors be used in major buildings. Some insurance companies would not write insurance on buildings that did not have PCB transformers.
