Philco 89 Pwr Trans
#7

Since you have another identical power transformer, why not measure its current draw and see how it compares to the toasted one. If they are the same, it doesn't get warm and the voltages are all in spec its probably OK.

The melted transformer probably had an external short in the radio like a bad filter cap or rectifier which caused it to overheat.
