  • Transformer shunt bias attempt

    Got really good advice from Hasserl on another forum - don't want to be redundant!

    yep, just make sure you move the test lead on your meter over to amps.

      And make sure to move it back to Volts afterwards.
      Before you measure plate voltage.

        Oh how many meter fuses have I had to replace over the years for not doing that.... More than I want to admit.

            Pays to have 2 meters....one for measuring I and one for plate E.

              Yep, I did quite a bit of damage down the years to meters and to amps slipping from pin 3 to pin 2. Eventually the muscles learn.
