Is this usual in Philco sets?

Hi.

I am in the uk and restoring a Philco , the attached images show the circuit diagram and part of the under chassis around the 35Z4GT.

In addition to the Live and Neutral there is a separate mains Earth all emanating from a modern 13 Amp plug.

The Earth wire is soldered to what looks like pin 6 which I think is not used and then via a capacitor to the chassis.

This is not shown in the circuit diagram. 

We have been talking about this on our UK Vintage Radio forum but I would appreciate comments from the Philco experts here!

Thank you.

IF can wire size and Rubber mounts?
Renovated Radios do carry what you need. As for the voltage, a wire should be at least 300V-rated.morzh — 11:13 PM
