There  should be no power mains connection to the chassis, 
even on the neutral  wire. In the USA, if we run a 120V 
transformer or blower in an amplifier  or anything else, 
there should be no path to the chassis or the safety  grounds 
for that blower or 120 transformer  primary.




I have been trying to get this point across now for a long time, but some  
people feel that "because it works" its OK to do regardless of what the NEC  
says.
