    Quoted from ccotenj:

    ???? they are still switched (on games that have switches, that is)???
    yes, they are mains voltage...

    Yes the way they are wired is dangerous, mains goes through the reset coils and fuses, then to the switch under the bottom of cabinet. On at the power point (Wall outlet) but off at game they still have power to the coils, Only the large reset coils. Mains power goes through these coils before the cabinet switch. But if game is turned off at the wall no power then no problem,
