I was thinking about RCD's. Before my friend the electrician comes back from vacation, that's all I can do - a little bit of research. Not that I complain. It's fun. I get to read a lof ot stuff and draw some silly pictures.
Wouldn't an RCD protect you in any kind of a fault anyway, even in a setup like mine? And if it's not the case, what kind of a fault would put you in a position of becoming Mr. conductor, like the poor fellow in the picture? Even though according to the diagram, he's perfectly safe in that particular situation, right? All you'd have to do is make some unusual changes in the diagram and he's not safe anymore. Let's call them faults. That's what interests me. I haven't had the opportunity yet to go check out the main fuse box of the building, the entry point of all the fat wires from the local transformer.
By the way, I should mention how I got the whole idea in the first place. I build sound gear for musicians. A good portion of it for my personal use.
Some other things like simple lab equipment as well. Anyway, I just finished building this particular amp. Looking at it, I though I ought to properly ground it, like it clearly states in any kind of a manual of an amplifier. Oviously the amp is not my only concern.
