  • 5e3 please give a diagnosis to my PT

    Hallo guys,
    yesterday i've finished my5e3 homebuild amp following triode layout.
    Unfortunately, i had problems wiring filaments, having dead short to ground.
    Now, i see that testing the two green wires from my PT MMFDTP (obviously switched off) i get continuity between them.
    My question: is that ok or i've compromised my irons?
    thanks in advance

    If there was no fire or smoke you may be alright.
    There should be continuity between the two green wires. That is either end of the same secondary winding. Set meter to AC and see what the voltage is with one proble on each green wire.
