One question for discussion. Is a glitch resistor in the HV preferable to a suitable fuse? (I don't mean a 1-1/4 inch glass fuse) Or is a fuse a desirable addition to a glitch resistor? Or is it unne

? A glitch resistor that disintegrates during a hv flashover, can not fulfill it's primary job of limiting current because, as it disintegrates, a metal-vapour arc takes place across the glitch-R. .

Peter, I have been using 40 ga. (or thereabouts) wire as a HV fuse on my tetrode amps for many years. In every case when the fuse was installed, there was no damage when the bang occurred. Replace th

You can also get some values of 250v ceramic fuses at Home Depot, etc. They are used in microwave ovens. I agree that slow blows are not likely to be correct for an amplifier -- they are very slow an
