Information

A fusible resistor has been used in the input stage

The use of a non-fusible type of  resistor for this component will result in a premature failure.

• Use only a fusible type resistor because it limits or is able to tolerate the inrush current at start-up. The use of a standard film type resistor will fail prematurely.
