"there is an arrow on the fuse tube." So what! All AC voltage/current is unidirectional!


Uh, "unidirectional" means "in one direction". Hence the arrow.


Miller??? you know what he means, (non-directional)🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️

AC mains changes it’s direction 60 x a second (60hz) so it’s impossible for a fuse to be directional, unless it’s behaving like a diode!!!, then your in real big trouble if it is trying to rectify the mains before the power supply transformer and then the bridge rectifiers.
MC knows what he's talking about, but if there is an arrow and THAT tid-bit goes over your head, what was he suppose to say.. Go ahead put it in backwards, rectify that George.. You've made your point, you and your buddies don't use them so MOVE ON.. But better yet STAY gone...

Your NOT welcome, along with anyone else that wants to join in on what THEY HAVEN'T DONE.  BUT see fit to call others NAMES just like what you just did with MC.. How many times do people have to complain about the georges of the world bent on saving poor lost ME from the mean ol FUSERS. It's NOT your business, but it is someone else's living..

Why don't you fix the water going down the crapper the WRONG direction first before taking on the biggies like who's buying those, THOSE bad old FUSES. Geeez mind your own business.


You got that so right  mapman


A fuse:
1: two end caps
2: short piece of fuse wire connecting the two end caps through a glass tube (that’s all she wrote).

To those "non technical" members that are interested, do not listen to fusers, listen to the techs of this industry that design the audio products you have.
AND YOU WON"T SEE THEM ON THREADS LIKE THIS AGREEING WITH THESE FUSERS, EVER!!!
Just clean and tighten your fuse holder and re-new your fuse (if old) with a good quality 50cent Bussman, Littlefuse or similar.
As with "many switch-on surges" they do deteriorate, bend, stretch and get crusty with electrolysis formations on their fusible wire elements before they give out, as these pics show of a fuse wire element ageing over time show. https://ibb.co/9NbTwqK
(even the $$$ boutique ones will age just as much also)
Cheers to those "non fusers" George
