They often include a Neon to indicate that you've (accidentally?) connected to a live circuit.

Everything that you have written in that last post of yours (post # 10) and the photographs included therein convince me even more that what you have there is someone's idea of a re-build / re-design. Clue: the Bakelite front panel and the hard rubber 'chock-blocks' are from two completely different periods of history. In actual point of fact, looking at the construction style again, it reminds me of how I used to build circuits when I was just a youngster and starting out with semi-conductors way back in the early 1960's! Money was very short then . . . come to think of it, all these years later, some things haven't changed much! (Cue for sad, mournful music. )

If I owned that item and felt strongly that I wanted to keep it, use it and had the time, inclination and necessary patience, I think I would contemplate analysing the circuit, completely dismantling it and re-building it entirely on Veroboard - making due allowance for the high voltages that are generated within it (read: generous amounts of spacing between certain components).

While looking for a Manual for my BM100 I came across this site - http://www.biddlemegger.com/cgi-bin/webs...ig=ent-man&uid=jmwuweyj135237698671&command=link--MeggerManuals.html

Very useful, but nothing on Clare ones that I can find.
