[Heathkit] IG-102 a.c. current draw info needed

I have a virtual manual of the sig gen, but I've lost
my reading program, it seems.  I've replaced the two
.02 uF a.c. line ceramic disc capacitors temporarily
with two 2kV d.c. paralleled .01s each after one of
them combusted. It sounded and smelled like a
magnesium fire; fortunately, nothing else was burned
except some wiring.

I'd like to fuse both a.c. lines, but I need to know
the current drawn by the unit.  I'm also ordering a
pair of a.c. line-rated .02 uF ceramic caps from
Mouser at a little over $2 apiece, after the
excitement from the fire.    

73,
Ted KX4OM
