Henry (and others) often used an encapsulated HV diode module or block
for the HV rectification. Three spade type terminals per block, two
blocks used in single phase linear amp supplies, three in 3 phase
supplies. I have acquired a few used ones, but do not know how to test
them other than bang them in a working circuit, which might be nasty
if one is SC. A diode tester won't produce the voltage needed. Has
anyone got a safe means of doing a basic functionality test on these
things out of circuit please? Thanks.
