Transformer
Hello, I need to open a transformer because I heard something shaking inside , could be small piece of plastic or so! I need to buy a bit/socket to open it and I do not know where to find it or what it called, can anyone please help with the socket name or any information. Photos included
Thanks
Thanks

There shouldn't be a problem allowing that to roll around inside the transformer.
A triwing safety bit is needed. I think that bit is included in most of the safety bit sets widely available.

You need the opposite direction.... a socket. I have them but haven't seen them around for sale

This is the triwing for Eaton screws. They were used on some auto radios.

That rattling is most likely the internal fuse. Honestly, just replace the transformer, the bit/bit set will cost more than that transformer will. Most of these things are just glued together, anyway.
