Oh dear - I rather embarrassingly got my left and rights mixed up as I looked at the circuit diagram, hence thinking the 2 mains pins were labelled A and E
At no point however was I going to connect up the mains to the aerial & earth sockets
Based on the info in the comments I can now see that BOTH live and neutral wires go into the on/off switch (therefore a double pole) incorporated into the volume pot and from there they go straight to the transformer via the connections on the tapping plate. So from this it doesn't matter which way the plug is connected
Its nice to see how many of us are still here on Xmas day
