Daniel, Just about every switch (class 4 and 5) I've ever seen has had a banana plug available. There is usually an opportunity to connect to the safety ground post, if you happen to have an alligator clip on your strap instead of the banana jack. Dave Spencer Oresis Communications

We are presently using banana plug type. The views expressed are my own and not necessarily that of my employer's.
