Hi David, thanks for your welcome, I'm enjoying the list posts and the avalanche of information immensely. Well done on your efforts to keep the list on track.
Yes, 240volts sure packs a whack. I've been hit by it only once. Once is usually it for most. I must have been lucky and momentarily formed a minor pathway from active to earth, rather than become BBQ as part of a full circuit from active to neutral return. since then, I've never personally messed with anything more than a 9volt battery!

Welcome John to our little band of repair people. That voltage you folks use is sort of scary to say the least, but then again I never mess with juice unless it's turned off first. I don't post much but I'm one of the guys who keeps this thing on track. David Ferrin
