Safety issue ? -Phonic Power Pod 1062,mixer amp, from 2002
In for switch replacement but owner says he has , sometime back , got a
shock off the mains lead by touching the earth pin when just unplugged from the mains. I told him probably static discharge rather than anything to do with mains , but explored , just in case. The large conventional type mains transformer is mounted on a metal plate that is held to the wood of the casing by 4 bolts. There is no earth strap , or ever has been , to this plate or transformer frame, so not earthed. The 4 bolts are exposed through casing on base of the amp. Hum issue if earth strap put in place ? -- Diverse Devices, Southampton, England electronic hints and repair briefs , schematics/manuals list on http://home.graffiti.net/diverse:graffiti.net/ |
