Stew Based on your description my expectation is that you had a voltage breakdown of the bleeder resistor. While we normally think of resistors in terms of the power they can dissipate, there is a voltage limit that can be sustained across the resistor as well as from the body to ground. I

. Nit: the L4 power supply used two 100K 50 watt resistors while L4B/L7 supplies typically used 50K 50 watt resistors. -Original Message- From: David Box david_...@comcast.net

John There is a ground wire in the cable that connects to pin 7 on both PS and amplifier that ties the chassis together. As I understand the metering system of the L4B/L7 you will always have the high voltage return sitting slightly above chassis due to the grid
