A different aspect to consider - what happens when there is anode-screen flashover. I inherited a PSU (with 10x33V/5W zener screen supply) from a friend. A dud tube caused a flashover and lots of dam

? My guess is that the zeners shorted. In such a case, shorted (0 volts) zeners cause no damage. (10) 5w zeners only cost around 11 dollars. ? The 10 x 33v zeners would have shorted at far less than

.....and you can win the lotto by buying only one ticket! Think about the problem a little bit. The screen has to rise to probably a thousand volts or more to give any transient protection time and

Shorted zeners need replacing - I don't want to have to re-build the PSU every time. They surely did. Agreed - my point was that a screen circuit designed to run at 10ish mA isn't an obvious place to

To: <amps@contesting.com> Zeners are hard clamps when they short. You can not use steering diodes because you need to provide a path to the zener-string for reverse screen current. Anode/screen flas

It would be identical to what you would do with a more complex regulator. I'd use a series diode string to the screen with a properly designed resistance across that diode string for reverse current

That's right, they don't clamp hard. The initial arc is also discharging capacitance beyond the current limiting resistor. VDR's are poor clamps, plus the initial transient can be very large compare
