In the L4-B power supply, Drake used an IRC type BWH/SPH "fail-safe" resistor (0.82 ohms/2W) as a fuse to protect the diode strings in the event of a short or closure of the RF deck cabinet interlock

I have used the Metal Oxide resistors available in Digi-Key (Panasonic and Yageo) for the same purpose. They are flame retardant and handle high surge currents. 0.82 ohms is listed as a stock value i

Take a single strand out of a piece of small stranded hook-up wire, and solder it across a 2 watt resistor. The purist can adjust the wire size so it will melt at the desired current. GL! (((73))) Ph

But not this much surge current. An arc has only about 20v drop across it. Thus, in a 2500V circuit, it hardly limits current at all. A glitch resistor must be robust enough to suffer no damage duri

Ok, I'm confused. Per the L4-B manual, "In the event of a short circuit, resistor R-12 [the one we're talking about] ... will be destroyed. The resistor protects the diodes in the power supply ...."

You are getting advice you do not need, Grant. The .82 ohm resistor is not for glitch protection, as some have assumed without looking at the L-4B schematic. It is exactly for the purpose you mention

The arcs are likely to be enough strain on the diodes, transformer and capacitors that mayhap you need good supply of those, too. Not every time, of course. Also, you need a mechanical arrangement so

Very true - I use one resistor in the present PSU, but it's about 6 inches long and 1-1/2 inch diameter, though. (Over the years, I've collected physically big vitreous enamelled resistors of 50 watt
