Just got electrified while calibrating the meter of my manley variable mu. I'm lucky it was no high current. Had the vu meter shades removed and accidently touched the needle when it happened. How is that possible? Shouldn't it be safe to touch the meter needle ?!
Beyond that i experienced a short when i went with the screw driver through the front panel to the trim pot. Could be i touched something else down there. But when it happend, the meter needle moved quickly right-left and then shrinked together like shrinking tube (it went from straight to some kind of S-shape..) weird thing. Grounding issue? No current on the case itself. The unit is from '95 - maybe i should let the whole unit check by some professionals. :-[
