How should I operate a Bussmann fuse tester?

Post by Markkim »

2508 - 210527 1. Watch one of the many videos available on YouTube. 2. Follow the instructions included with the tester. Remember that there are many various types of fuses, such as milliampere fuses, slow blow fuses, fast blow fuses, electronic fuses, and so on. Low-cost testers are simply continuity checkers with no quantitative evaluations. You MUST be aware of the test circumstances, such as voltage and current, or you will damage sensitive fuses.

Fuse analyzer instructions.
1. Install fuse
2. Increase load
3. If fuse 'FAILS' bxxxx, it WAS good.
4, Fuse did not 'FAIL' bxxx
5. Goto step 2

Note: This works the same as the Sylvania flash bulb tester!

true enough, I looked at many of his past posts and all have a link going through this suspicious looking website but at least the topics seems to be relevant and the posts are not incoherent.

www (dot) voidapovoidgevoidewevoidb (dot) net which is not searchable by search engines implying it is a dark web site or at least one that blocks turned off search engines bots. I didn't follow the links or look at source code to see if the page looked malicious, clicker beware. It might just be his private web URL too

Did you see the end of the link? Should be a clue, especially since there's been no other contact from the OP. ;)
