An ELCB is NOT the same as an RCD. An ELCB looks for current in the ground lead (actually it's often called a 'voltage trip'), so having a station RF ground can bypass the ELCB coil. RCDs in the UK a

I forgot to mention the ELCBs are not fitted to new installations in the UK - and haven't been for some years. RCDs are fitted instead. 73 Peter G3RZP -- FAQ on WWW: http://www.contesting.com/ampfaq.

OK, here's my 2 cents worth: Since you will be using both 240 and 120 (phase to neutral), use a 4 wire plug, or as a much less desirable alternative use 3 wires and make sure the chassis is always co
