Re: SR-150 PWR Supply
开云体育Dave,? ya… 4 more hours and the year is Gone. ? Back when this stuff was made,? the identity of hot and neutral should have made it to the back of the outlet but there was no such identity at the front so the idea of hot and neutral? did not make it into a radio or anything? using a normal outlet.? Once you/we ?modify the cord and Outlet to be polarized we have a new situation so a fuse can be put in the “hot”? wire. etc ?

Replacing a garbage 18 gauge AC cord that someone installed in the power supply.? I see the guy wired the neutral side to the fuse. I always thought the hot side went to the fuse, just like in the breaker panel.? ? In a 110 VAC line,?the "hot" wire should always be connected to the fuse in a device, not the neutral wire;?meaning the fuse should be placed on the side of the line carrying the live current.? Explanation: ·?????? Safety: Placing the fuse on the hot wire ensures that when a fault occurs and the fuse blows, the appliance is completely de-energized, preventing potential shock hazards if someone touches the device while it's faulty.
