Voltage Selector Plugs - Fuses

[Excessive Leakage]

Having spent some hours trying to find a replacement for one of these on the 'net, I was wondering whether the small (1/4" x 1/2" old money) 1A fuses in the mains voltage selector plugs of Armstrong tuners (T4, St3 Mk 2, etc.) are still obtainable?

Attached is a picture of a plug and fuse (the same design but from a Pye tuner).

Any assistance would be much appreciated!

Thanks

Adam,

Are you looking for the whole thing or just replacement Fuses?

I've got a few 5/8" fuses but nothing that small. The alternative is to bridge out the contacts on the voltage selector and fit a fuse elsewhere. Ideally an HRC one that is a lot safer for breaking a mains voltage fault.

You could solder this type in - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/QUANTITY-OF-10...Sw5b1XI31P

I think they are only rated for 125V so definitely not suitable. Looks like many similar types are also only 125V.

Thanks very much for your helpful replies.

It was only the fuse I was looking for but I am now inclined to bridge and fuse elsewhere as Jeffrey suggested. I do have some smaller, 250V rated ones but they are tiny http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/350819417244?_trksid=p2060353.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Maybe the original fuses were not separately available to the voltage selector plug?

Best regards

That was only meant as an example of what is available Jeffrey.
