ZKIT2 Fuse Value (Read 3229 times)

RonFranks Verified Member Offline Posts: 13	ZKIT2 Fuse Value 10/13/21 at 18:24:59 I’m building the ZKIT2 as monoblocks with a power transformer for each chassis. I can’t seem to find the recommended AC line fuse value anywhere. Can someone please help?

If the transformers heaters are rated at 6.3 VCT 5A, it doesn’t seem that a 3 amp fuse is a high enough value. Can you explain why a 5 amp draw wouldn’t blow a 3 amp fuse? I’m guessing the rating and the current draw are quite different, with the actual draw being less.
