Is it normal to have 120VAC on the chassis referencing earth ground if using an un-polarized electrical plug?  I want to make sure there isn't a short somewhere.

When the white neutral plug is inserted into the small (hot) socket,  I measure 120VAC between earth ground and the auto/man switch on the record player.

Thanks!

Joel
