My guess is it's your switch. Check the resistance across the switch when it's "on" (but with the power off). I had this problem recently with a DPDT toggle switch that I used in a project....in the on position, one leg had measurable resistance...wound up pitching it and replacing with something higher quality.Also.....is your switch really rated for 350V? You might have to use something heavier duty that exceeds that rating.
