[HBR] pondering an HBR

[Adrian Flynn]

Hi Chris,
After looking at your photos I think it would be smart, right at the start
to *check the wiring on the fuse holder*.
If I am following the wires in the photo* [ underside (right) ]* correctly
the hot wire from the power line is going to to the outside terminal and
not to the center connector at the end of the fuse holder.
This would put one side of the AC line to the fuse holder closest to the
end where you install and remove the fuse.
If so this is an open invitation to connect yourself across the AC line
when the fuse is out of circuit!
It looks like this should be an interesting project.
