Wiring
The original design was not grounded to the AC line, since most homes in the '50s only had
two wire outlets. We've chosen to ground the amp for safety. We did deviate slightly from the
original design in that a mains ground is used. Power and preamp star grounding is used and
the mains ground is bolted to the chassis. We run the individual pre-amp grounds directly to a
separate star instead of 'bussing' them as on the original. This was done to reduce the
background noise.
Here is a guideline for wiring the kits with the supplied wire:
-
Use 22 gauge 600V solid for hook up to tubes
-
Use 22 gauge 600V solid/stranded for hook up to pots/front panel
-
Use 20 gauge 600V pre-twisted wire for tube heater wiring
-
use 20 Gauge, stranded or solid, 600v for power supply hook up - to transformers,
rectifier, standby etc.
-
Re-use stranded cut offs from the transformers.
