When the idea of adding an additional (flip) switch to each 240v circuit
was suggested that was one of my concerns--that it was something else to
go wrong, which would in turn would make it harder to isolate a problem.


This is a different issue than Lew's quote above.

yes, I know, but I thought it was related and I was curious about the
value of additional switches.


Don't know about your voltmeter, but ones that can be used for testing
all voltages are very inexpensive and handy to have it you're going to
be doing your own electrical work.

Thanks, that's what I wanted to hear. I'm going to have to learn to use
mine "better" before I plug it into high voltage...
