Model 54 question - 45philcodon - 02-18-2021

I've just started restoration of a Model 54. This model has a pushbutton "safety switch" that disconnects both sides of the AC line.

Why is this switch on this model? What was the reason for adding this switch?

I haven't seen this switch on any other Philco models.

Thank you, Don

So you don't get knock on your derriere when you have the back exposed.
