Tube Pin Schematic Question

David E H · 26th April 2009, 12:50 AM

Quick question......what pin do I connect the wire to from the standby switch on the 5Y3?

Thanks,
David

See the Data Sheet

Where it can be connected if not there?

Oh....very true....

I don't know why, but wiring tubes from schematics confuses me. I think it'll come along with time and experimenting though.

Thanks for your help.

It's not you. That schematic is drawn incorrectly. The symbol for the rectifier shows the cathode as isolated from the heater, which is incorrect for a 5Y3.

Oh, okay then.....

your eye doesn't catch any other faulty errors, does it?

For standby You must put switch on middle wire /ground/ between 298 & 298 V.
