Hi,
I would like to do some soldering on my Scott tube amp and would like
to know how to do it safely. Is there a way to discharge the stored
electricity.
Thank You, Chris
You release the energy stored in your power supply filter caps and it's done
by using a specialized lead made up of a resistor of adequate size and value
with a alligator clip on one end and a insulted test probe on the other.
Never discharge a capacitor strait to ground. It can damage the component.
Google "capacitor discharge lead"
