Hello again-
I am building a PSU using a nice, big, expensive toroid transformer. I've got this model **broken link removed**
It is rated for 25-V-25 at 3.2A a side.
My quandry, ladies and gentlemen, is
a) should I use a fuse?
b) what value?
c) Where? (as in, the AC line or after the toroid)
I'm guessing a 7.5A (closest to 6.4 availiable) right at the start of the AC.
But, i wish to die no more, so please help me out.
Thank you all!
EDIT: if it's important, it's supplying power for two of these and about 1A worth of other things
DOUBLE EDIT: if the heat output is 20W max and sound is 20W max, and volts is 50, then amps is 0.8, correct? seems a bit low - thats all...
