All of the queries frequently presented on the subject of SCR/TRAC dimmers etc would be deleted.
Plus all the 240v appliance problems and 3ph & 1ph phase motors questions, just to name a few.
The end result would be a drastic reduction in forum traffic.

The only answer would be to restrict ALL posts to the considered extra safe level, no higher than 50vac.!The user agreement specifically mentions transformerless power supplies, but I believe the intent is to protect people from being exposed to high voltages. So, even if you added an isolation transformer, there would still be high voltages present.
