Little correction there

The AC never touches the chassis. At least in anything built after 1962. The AC circuit is entirely isolated from the chassis. So the argument of polarity and chassis grounding is wrong. FYI a power tranny does not require polarity. The AC wave being in one of two 180 degree phases make no difference in converting AC to DC.
