RE: Extra care?

No out of the ordinary measures. I am the only one with access to my balanced power unit and know what I have plugged into it. Unlike with your standard household power where the neutral side is grounded, with balanced power, both 60V legs are hot. When you plug any equipment that has a single pole power switch into a regular household receptacle, the unswitched side is connected to the neutral, which is grounded. When that same equipment is plugged into balanced power, even when the power switch is in the off position, the unswitched side will be live. Yes, I did notice a difference without the (two GFCIs since I use separate trannys for my analog and digital equipment).
