Blowing Fuses. Dennis Had Inspire 300B SET
I was disappointed this evening, as I was listening and all of a sudden I blew a fuse, and I don’t have a manual. I don’t know if the fuse is a fast blowing fuse, or a slow blowing fuse. The one in there is a two amp, and the fuse itself is a zigzag not a straight fuse I replaced it. And it blew again and I saw the rectifier tube had a reaction when I turned it back on. Does anyone have any experience and can anyone give me some advice thank you.
I am happy to report that Dennis Had got back to me and told me after asking what type of rectifier tubes I had, to buy from Tube Depot, and to purchase a JAN Phillips Military rectifier…. also that I needed a slow blow 2 amp fuse, and if this does not work that he would take a look at it for me. I want to say that you are all very helpful and I want to thank you for all chiming in on this one! Merry Christmas |
Keep us updated, @moose89 , and let us know how it all works out. By all accounts that I am familiar with, Dennis is a good dude and backs his products. |
After getting the rectifier tube, the problem still remains as a blown fuse continues and the replacement of the blown fuses continue. The only tube that was able to get warm was the rectifier tube and my Western Electric 300 bees showed signs of life before the fuse did its job. I have contacted Dennis Had and hopefully he will help me. |
@moose89 Does the amp blow its fuse if the power tubes are not installed but the rectifier is? |
