Quoted from Billc479:
If you’re working on a live machine and touch the hot lead of the 115 volts (Say the convenience outlet which bypasses the machine fuse) while leaning against the grounded side rails, you could get quite a jolt.
True. But why would you want to touch a live wire in the first place?
On the other hand, if a live wire happened to touch anything ungrounded in the machine (side rails, legs, coin door, etc...) and you happened to touch any of those ungrounded pieces of metal, you would get quite a jolt. This would be an instance where you were not working on the machine, but rather just playing it with a defective wiring condition.
Did I miss something? Is there a reason not to run a 3 wire, grounded system?
Add the switch in this line shown in the attachment. Leave the bounce switch in the circuit...just in case someone wants to bounce the game!
