You are absolutely right Harry and it is what we are going to do as soon as the switches arrive . On another subject i have just finished restoring a C-5 Canadian Charging panel . This one is different from my other panel . It has got extra posts . The current will not go through the posts were my fingers are pointing and work properly unless we install a wire between them . Q : Could a fuse of been used on this panel ?

SW/BD CHARGING NO5 C MKI RMSA38 Serial No C445 . I am beginning to think this charging panel is a later variant ( MKI ) . It is very possible it was more complicated and had fuses and that my friend would be an excellent idea . My other panel has not such provision . I will check later if the designation is different .

My other panel : SW/ BD CHARGING NO C5 ( Canadian ) serial No 23280. RCA 101975-501. So this is the early model and my other the subsequent model ( MKI ) .
