I've a Peavey 5150 , 2003 USA made, for repair.
This is an export model for 240V/220V areas, no 110V option.
The mains lead has a German? integral plug( 2 round pins and a removed
earth
pin but an exposed earthing point) on the lead with a German? socket to

plug adaptor.
I would never use serious equipment through one of these mickey mouse
adaptors. I'd either change the plug, or use a proper trailing socket and
plug. Quite apart from any safety issues there's reliability to consider.

Micky Mouse is right - flimsy plastic adaptor case that allows the German
plug to move all over the place,X,Y and Z, hence no earth continuity.



It`s not one of those cheap International travel adaptors from the pound
shop is it?
