You guys got it all wrong. That's either a rescue transformer like a dingy towed behind a boat, so in case the blue smoke comes out of the main transformer, it can take over in an emergency, or it's to power an alarm bell to signal when the furnace quits.
See... You don't have to secure a cap. Attachment 356661 Lets go, burnin daylight.
Found one hanging on the primary wires in an electric furnace last week. Shoddy workmanship.
Because the wires on the primary side are not long enough to reach where it connects to the control board and that would be extra work.
Why not just put that on the line in box with the switch ?

aaaa....that screw you see there in the picture is so one can mount it into a electrical knockout.
Never did care for the transformers that were shipped with humidifiers. Would much rather expect a foot mount one these days. Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2

Sheet metal screws are normally stockpiled on any commercial rooftop. They can be found in all shapes and sizes, and with various stages of rust.

Looks like a door bell transformer. A lot of people think the furnace is a good place to steal power from.
