Or in the alternative, an SHV connector as an improved type of HV disconnect over the MHV for added safety. With the SHV, the HV contact breaks path before the grounded shell contact path.. Paul, W9A

RG-400 is another PTFE variant, being similar to RG-142. Tooling dimensions are identical to RG-58 and RG-142; crimping and stripping tools designed for RG-58 work well with either RG-142 or RG-400.

Many commercial amps use a 25-ohm @ 25W resistor in the B+ line between the filter cap and the anode(s). If regulation as a result of IR drop was an issue with R placed in front of the filter C, (and

Thinking it through a bit further, a 25-ohm surge R placed between the filter C and anode(s) only results in 25V drop at 1A of Ip. So, in relation to a 3-4KV supply, that's insignificant. However, wi

Hi George, To Jim's earlier point, he did indicate that his series R between the full-wave rectifier and filter C needed to be augmented by an arc-fault resistor after the filter C for the very reaso

But the series R between the rectifier and filter C should still keep current limited in the event of a filter C short -- and hopefully, assist in protecting the rectifier stack. That's something th
