[Elecraft] KPA-500 fuse block door

[k2zf50 at aol.com]

Hi,


I just received my factory built KPA-500 amplifier. The fuses were not included with the amp so I went to Radio Shack and picked up two 3 AG 6 amp fuses for 240 v operation.
With the fuses installed the fuse block door will not close. Is this normal? With the fuses out of the fuse block the door closes perfectly but with the fuses installed I just can't close it.


Any suggestions?


Thanks,
