What is the voltage rating on the old carbon comp resistors? I am
rebuilding a Hallicrafters P-26 power supply. It uses two 500V
electrolytic capacitors in series for the HV filter with series 470K 2W
resistors. I bought a couple of 470K 2W metal film resistors to replace
them. I see they are rated at 500V but just wondered what the old
carbon comp are rated. I guess if the filter capacitors are 500V,
that's all the rating I need for the series resistors.
