So... What are those fuses that are slightly smaller than regular
little Buss fuses sold at Ace hardware etc.

There is a 5 x 20mm variety. Radio Shack sells them if you can't find them
anywhere else.

I have a Mastech HY3005 power supply (ex military). It's kind of
cute. does both constant voltage and constant current and could be
used for plating, etc.

It seems to be fine, except that it is missing a fuse. I tried puching
in a regular Buss fuse and it would not fit. I think that it uses some
smaller fuses, not sure what kind.

Sounds about right, I will try to check out RS. Thanks.



There are also 5x25 & 5x30mm fuses. Not as common as 5x20mm, but check
to make sure before you go shopping. If you have trouble finding them
locally and/or aren't in a hurry, email me the amperage and if I have
them I'll stick a few in an envelope. I used to use a lot of 5x25mm in
control panels in modular fuse holders, but these days I can buy circuit
breakers for only a few dollars more than the fuse holders.
