Edcor GXSE5-600-15K for 300B HPA

OPT screen

Screen to signal ground or not to screen?

 

[jazbo8]

Is this a UL opt?

Unless you are using a pentode of some sort, you dont use the screen tap. You certainly do not want to ground it.

@jazbo8
I don't know, it's EDCOR GXSE5-15k_600ohms

@lexx21
It's triode SE use.

So you show a drawing and know the model no., and yet you even don’t bother to read the specs on Edcor’s website. Why?

In technical English the word "screen" may mean:
1. an electrostatic screen - for example, as included in some power transformers - this should be grounded
2. an abbreviation of 'screen grid' - for example, as included as a tap in UL output transformers - this should be connected to the screen grid (for UL) or left isolated (for pentode or triode operation).

@merlin - please do not start multiple threads on the same topic. Your threads have been merged.

Sorry about my comments above, but you can do what the rest of us do when we read in a foreign language, use Google Translate:

Screen/Grid Tap 40% = Pantalla / Grilla Tap 40%

OTOH, if you don't know what the screen tap is for, then it's a different matter...
