> 1.. Chassis is hot at 80 V AC
The line filters usually have caps from each side of the line to the chassis.
This acts as a voltage divider making the chassis hot either way the plug goes
in. I've been zapped a few times by this and have had a computer interface
smoke too. Thats also why some trip GFIs. Make sure you have a good ground
connected.
Cheers, Gord.
