Default Re: Safe to apply mains?

i know nothing about that particular model but.....i dont see much harm in powering all tube series string sets directly for a couple of seconds just to get a baseline...if there is a hard short then there is no power transformer to blow up, only the fuse will blow...if there is high voltage and a raster thats great, recap it....if not then think...either troubleshoot first or shotgun it with caps...
i like to troubleshoot first to avoid spending time and money on dead sets
