RE: Some fiddling and some discoveries...

125A/250V 5x20mm SLO-BLO fuses.

125 amp? I am pretty sure you mean 1.25 amp? A 125 amp 250V fuse is a pretty big fuse. Amperage as well as physical size.


I then proceeded to (after disassembling the whole deadly thing, the reassembling with the board) connect the red and black and orange and yellow to the board.


Are you 100% sure you hooked up the secondary windings correctly?
Did you parallel the two windings so they were in phase with each other? If not the two winding will buck one another and that would blow the fuse protecting the transformer.

Winding #1
Blk and Red leads.

Winding #2
Org and Yel leads.

To parallel the two windings,

Connect the Blk lead and the org lead together. (This becomes one hot leg of the 15Vac that will feed the board)

Connect the Red lead and the Yel lead together. (This becomes the other hot leg of the 15Vac that will feed the other terminal on the board.
