Power Distribution for Devialet

OK - I have to admit Gui has got me interested in this phase stuff (see link)

However, if a plug is 'neutral' on one pin, and 'live' on another (or phase / AV or whatever), surely there is a simple way to check this? From an electrical point of view it is quite important, otherwise your domestic switches might be switching the neutral, rather than the live wire, which might be problematic when changing a light bulb. Can't this be tested with a multi-meter? To be honest, a collapse in sound stage is bad, but one of your loved ones being electrocuted when changing a light bulb is worse!

I'm not convinced this phase stuff applies to the UK, our wiring regs are very tight, and I've never seen UK based hifi gurus recommending it. Unless the inside of the amps are connected up randomly we should be ok.
