Should I get
continuity between the s-shaped swigglely lines?
NO!. Those should be open-circuit
both ways!
Well, that depends on whether it's in-circuit or not. In circuit, it
probably will show continuity both ways (with about two diode drops of
voltage developed), or possibly less if there's an isolation
transformer between it and the mains.
