Default Nasty electric shock!

While plugging stuff in and out of my pre 3 the other day I got an enormous belt from the casing.

A check with a meter showed the case was at 350vDC. Ouch!

With 'phone guidance from a very knowledgeable friend we tracked it down to a detached 0v lead from the power supply circuit board to the back of the CliffCon connector.

Just though this was worth mentioning in case anyone else's pre 3 decides to bite them.

Guy
