[Amps] plate voltage meter shunt

[Carl]

Mouser carries Ohmite flatpak HV resistors; Ive been using them to replace 
the old carbons in many amps.

Subject: [Amps] plate voltage meter shunt


I am installing a meter to measure plate voltage 1-5000v@ 1a dc, the meter 
has a 1ma fs rating. the serial resistance I have made up in the past has 
been 3 watt metal film resistors in series. since they can only rated for 
200v per resistor it takes many to do the job. Can some other resistor type 
with a higher rating be used in a safe manner for this purpose?...tnx,
