Bet the Beeb et alia stopped doing that when they nearly electrocuted
the first guitarist.


1. The most common error in AC plug wiring is Neutral-Earth reverse -
the item works and there is no big problem until you find an AC outlet
that has Active and Neutral reversed.


2. Add a 240:240V iso-transformer that carries the supply ground through
to the outlet and it becomes instantly LETHAL.


Supply earth goes direct to one side of the amp's AC tranny, then the
iso-tranny's 240V winding and back to the amp's chassis. The amp will not
run - but the chassis is 240AC live.




You seem to have started a new thread quoting just yourself?

Must be the problem when typing with one hand.

BTW, it's very easy to invent a series of stupid reasons why tried and
tested safety measures won't work. By people who don't live in the real
world.
