Cured the main problem but the owner seems to live with what to me seems

This amp is 110V running off a 240/110 V autotransformer with the chassis
having an earth to mains earth (UK)


Probably illegal and should almost certainly be linked out. You might want
to consult your liability insurance



I don't think I'm following what you're saying there. Explain ??


I misread it as a chassis to mains earth switch. Such things have been known.

What DID he mean by " with the chassis having an earth to mains earth " ?

Either the chassis is earthed (grounded) or it isn't !
