In Reply to: Fuse direction? posted by mojul on January 14, 2023 at 08:15:39:
The fuse is operating in an AC circuit. The amplifier has two power transformers. The line fuse is between (in series with) the incoming AC hot side and one lead of the primary of each of the power transformer. Current will reverse direction twice each cycle. (120 times per second if the AC is 60Hz)If the fuse was operating in a DC circuit then there might be a possibility that it could be directional.
