Add an anti-inrush NTC thermistor made for the purpose,
assuming no actual fault situation.


That, of course, was the issue. There wasn't anything obviously wrong with
the unit.




Could it be the fuse was rated for 240 volt operation (at 1/2 the value) and
being used on 120 volts?

I often see this - 240 volt operation ha a fuse 1/2 the value of that for
120 volt operation.
