To uprate or not uprate ?
Midi system blowing one fuse of pair on secondary of mains transformer, each
fuse 2amp rating. 4 1N4002 as bridge rectifier, one gone short circuit, no other down-stream problems. Replace all 4 with 1N4002 or uprate to 4 off 2 or 3 amp diodes ? -- Diverse Devices, Southampton, England electronic hints and repair briefs , schematics/manuals list on http://home.graffiti.net/diverse:graffiti.net/ |
