Thanks to all of you! I will used the standard grounded base unit. It even has a felt wick which I presume allows one to add some light oil into the moving parts. Also, unlike the cheap reproduction of the ford switch, it's in a sealed bakelite housing so the workings cannot move around and contact each other. Coop, I felt like my dad was looking at me over the top of his reading glasses. Thanks, I needed that, and CAS Holy S#!+ close one!
