I'm trying to work on a piece of lab instrument that needs to have some
fuses replaced.

They appear to be ceramic type fuses.. The manual states that these must be
"rectifier type fuses". Regular fuses not recommended.

Can someone tell me what a rectifier fuse is? I've never heard of these
until now and my search on the web hasn't yielded
much useful information.

Thanks,
Dave
