Hi there, 2 questions using my Seaward Apollo 500:

1- my radio connection between guitar and amplifier has a separate PSU, so is class 3? Should I simply PAT this as class 2?

2- my bass combo amp is a pretty new Ashdown Studio 15 which does not have any class marking (apart from RoHS CE) so has to be class 1? But this device fails earth continuity and I don't believe it is manufactured to earth the exposed metal parts. Can I ignore this test? If so, for what reason?

Thank you.
