andym Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 I've got a Clansman PRC351 that's recently stopped working and started rattling instead. On taking it apart, one of the screwed pillars that secure the boards had worked loose and was wandering round inside. The radio now seems totally dead, and poking around there's what looks like a ruptured fusible wire link marked "42 SWG" near where the +24V lead comes in to PL1. Does anyone know if this is indeed a fuse? Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fv1609 Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 Andy it is indeed, 42 Standard Wire Gauge copper wire has a fuse rating of 1.25A & a fusing current of 2.5A. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andym Posted July 10, 2015 Author Share Posted July 10, 2015 Thanks Clive - I'm amazed at how thin the lead is from the positive battery terminal to the circuit board, but I don't suppose it needs much current at 24V. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
