How old is it? Did you get it new?

Yeah- bought off Gary Chapman @ PMT.
2013 MY EC Twinolux.
Could you link the schematic? Where are the internal fuses?
Thx.

Over the years I've had a couple that have blown when seemingly no fault was present. They are subject to a lot of vibration, which no doubt weakens them over time.
Try replacing it (it MUST be the same rating) and power up again.
If it goes again, probably best to have someone take a look - though if you have spares, you might want to try swapping the output valves first and trying again - I have had a faulty output valve take a couple of fuses out too.
Minor internal fire and serious wiring damage caused by stupid design - filament fuse (unnecessary) but no HT fuse (which are a very good idea).
When a power valve shorted it didn't blow the mains fuse, until after the valve socket had vitrified and burned a substantial part of the wiring loom, and fried a couple of components on the board above.
Hopefully it isn't as bad as that - if the fuse blew immediately, it shouldn't be. Still almost certainly a power valve failure though.
