They used to come in a kit. IIRC the number was Workman FRT2. Feel free to
correct me. You got both but you could get them separate also.
Anyhows the thermistor would fall apart & all the TV current would flow
through the VDR & smoke it up.

On MOV they are metal oxide varistors. There purpose is to die to save the TV.
They are put in the AC line just AFTER the AC fuse & as close physicaly
& shortest leads possible. If a surge hits it will DEAD SHORT & blow the
AC fuse to protect Your set will not have one unless someone modded it.
