[QUOTE=R.G.;162309]Maybe.
And last, there is a device that's even cheaper that can offer protection from shock and hum. It's called a resistor. I remember an old prescription for shock-safe but hum free string grounding calling for a 220K resistor bypassed by a ceramic capacitor. The resistor limited the low frequency current. A 120V potential across a 220K resistor only delivers half a milliamp, only 20% of the 10ma fuse rating. The cap "shorts" RF picked up buzz and the resistor stops the real low frequency hum.
Hello,
Could you elaborate further on this please. I would like to know how to do it.
