6X5 bypass question
#13

Fuse could potentially help, but in the secondary the voltage across it could exceed the rated fuse voltage causing arcing across it if opened. It is a complex process, the voltage could not be that high in the first place as the voltage after the fuse is that of a charged cap that would discharge slow plus the load is bnot purely inductive, but still it has to be analyzed.

In the primary fuse could help.
In any case one has to remember that fuse is a SAFETY device and not an equipment protection device, which even if it does, then only as a side effect. The main goal of the fuse is preventing fires. Even the fast action fuse might not be fast enough to prevent damage to the electronics if something goes wrong.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
