Howard, thanks for this important piece of information. I didn't know there are different types of sheet metal. I'll make sure I bring a piece of magnet with me to test the sheet metal before I buy.

Just for my own curiosity, I'll consult with an electrician to see what he has to say about my wiring.

Thanks again! :-)
