Another thing I agree with you on. I've had several
run-ins with safety
officers (one of whom claimed that 5V on exposed wires in a research lab
was dangerous...) We soon learnt how to keep out of their way, and what
to hide [1] when they came round.
[1] Suicide leads, for example. I hate to mention this on a public list,
but they're a cable with a mains plug at one end and croc clips on the
other. Used for powering up transformers for testing, etc. Totally
lethal, and I don't recomend that anyone here makes a set, OK....

Very handy, Tony. Probably not as lethal on our 110 as on your
220, but careless operation can result in a short course in arc welding.
