You definitely want the slow blow fuse. When a motor starts it has a high in-rush current for several milliseconds. A standard fuse may blow due to that in-rush current.
Sota sapphire question-power supply fuse rating?
Hi; I have acquired an earthquake-damaged early vintage sota sapphire (serial no. 13522) which I'm trying to patch up. Have contacted Donna at sota for advice, but the always-helpful reply might take a while and I need to get it working ASAP!
There is a 1.25" fuse in power supply which has blown; I read a forum note here which said you can blow the transformer if you get the fuse rating wrong, but I can't find correct fuse ratings, or sapphire power ratings to determine these anywhere!
We are on 230v power here if it helps in determining correct fuse rating...any help appreciated.
