KPA500

[Michael Raskin]

I just finished assembling my KPA500 (s/n 625).  I was very careful in following the instruction, or so I thought.  When I plugged it in and turned on the rear rocker panel switch, the fuses immediately blew.  I have the 120 VAC power cord and the 12 Amp fuses installed.  Any suggestions where to start?

Check that the terminal strip board on the rear panel is not shorted to the
rear panel.  There is supposed to be an insulator between the terminal strip
board and the rear panel.
