Hi all,

Yesterday I picked up two 2 kVA 230 V - 110 V transformers. One I plan
to use to run 110 V tools in the workshop, and the other I plan to
rewind for my phase convertor.

While loading the transformers I unfortunately knocked a wrench off a
shelf. It fell inside one transformer and cracked a fuse holder. Damn!
That's the third stupid thing like that I've done in the last couple of
months...

On the plus side, I noticed that the fixed part of another fuse holder
is cracked, so I needed a replacement anyway. But a single replacement
unit will do. The fuse holder is marked "Slydlok" and is rated at 30 A.
Anyone got a spare lying in their parts box or junk pile? It's a
component that probably turns up in industrial equipment pretty often,
but you wouldn't notice it unless you were looking for one. Please let
me know if you have; it would be appreciated.

Here's a picture of the transformers. The fuse holders are visible, and
the motor for my phase convertor is to the side:

Obviously they require a clean and repaint, but that's part of the fun.

Best wishes,

Chris
