[Elecraft] KPA-500 fuse block door

[Ron D'Eau Claire]

Hi Jim:

The fuse block is fully seated the way. See the bottom illustration on page
5 of your owner's manual. The contacts offer significant resistance as you
push the block in the last few millimeters and it's important you fully seat
it.

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,
