Re: Dansette Viva
The Dansette Prince, Bermuda MKII and the mains only Transit (all U series jobs) had the deck earthed and the cartridge isolated by capacitors.

The green wire attached to the live (brown) tag on the output of the mains switch goes to the anti-surge resistor. The white twin core cable connects the output of the cartridge to the volume control via the isolating capacitors. The grey/cream twin core cable connects the volume control to the amp. Before plugging the player into the main supply, I suggest that you use your meter to conform that, with the player switched on, there is no continuity between the Live and Neutral pins of the mains plug and the deck.
