    Re: Bad PSU Thermistors blowing, no multimeter

    Considering it's a brand new psu it is pretty disappointing . Those caps don't look like they can hold much. Was considering recapping it.

        it should still have some warranty on it.

            Rohm R5016FNX, ZDX130N50; NTE2939 might work. But I didn't really look at the spec sheets that carefully...
            Yep thanks, searched but they are not available in our stores but I think I found a winner. The volts are a little high at 600V vs 500V and amp value is lower at 12A vs 13A. Gate voltage to source max is +30V which is the same as the 13N50.
            Gate Threshold Voltage - Min: 2V Max: 4V vs 13N50 -Min: 3V Max: 5V

            Here are the specs
            FQP12N60C
            N-Channel QFET®MOSFET 600 V, 12A, 650 mΩ

            13N50 .

            What do you guys think?

                How To Test a P-channel Trench Mosfet Using A Multimeter In Diode Mode
                by dj8452000
                I am new to electronics and I'm understanding most of what I'm reading but I have a mosfet on my board that I've identified as a P-channel Trench Mosfet. I haven't a clue how to test this and what I should expect to see with the multimeter probes. I am hoping someone with years more experience than myself can help me understand how to use a multimeter to read this. Please look at the drawing I have attached to this and can you try to explain to me what I should be doing with my multimeter in diode mode and what results I should expect from a good mosfet?...

                help with home a/c and circuit breaker
                by BigTroll
                while I was gone today the women called me and said the a/c isn't working and the breaker is buzzing so she turned off the breaker. The a/c is a old 1993 model York so its nearing the end of its days, on really hot days the a/c will trip the breaker.

                I visually checked the cap and contactor and they looked okay, I also pulled the 250v ac fuses and switched the main ac breaker on and got no buzz. I did get buzz when I put the ac 250v fuses back in and flipped on the breaker nothing but buzzing. could it be a shorted wire or did the circuit breaker just finally give up the ghost?...

                How an incandescent light and a ESR meter ** friend**have a machine blowing fuses
                by sam_sam_sam
                About a month ago we had a transformer jumper wire that burned in two different places between two transformers caused over $200 thousand dollars worth of damage to VFD drives at least 10 of them and a memory card and quite a few power supply as well

                Now we have most of the equipment that got damaged back up and running except a feeder that has issues and we are waiting for some parts for

                Now we also have another piece of equipment that was blowing fuses on the 110 volt controller switch circuit with the “E” stops and one switching power (24 volt) supply and a transformer...

                ATX power supply keeps blowing PFC mosfets — Cooler Master RS-550-ACAA-E3
                by davidebaldini
                This is an ATX PSU rated for 550W powering 24/7 a computer load of about 200W, fed by a line-interactive 1500VA UPS. Mains is 230V.
                1. First issue: the PSU blew a mosfet on what I think is the active PFC boost converter, shorting its G D S pins together causing a short across the + and - lines produced by the rectifier on the 230V mains. The surge protector of the house tripped. When this happened I found that the UPS was unexpectedly disconnected from the wires of its battery. The UPS wasn't damaged, but I suspect this spontaneous detachment of a battery wire caused a condition that blew

                Craftsman 82345 Multimeter broke!
                by trex66
                My daily carry just stopped working only me. Started last week with the voltage flickering. Found one lead was broken and I ordered new ones. New leads didn't change anything, it displays “-1” on all settings but on continuity will give the tone when touching. Checked battery and found the fuse blown. Replaced fuse but same results. Cleaned the dial and led display and its parts. Board looks nice and clean no burned or broken components. Nothing traumatic happened to this multimeter I put it aside when I found the lead broken and didn't touch it until I got the neAnyone have any ideas what's...
