#188194 - Perhaps Current Limiting
Responding to: ???'s previous message
The manual I was able to locate is for the MKII located:

http://www.thevalvepage.com/servdata/...arnell.htm

click on the e350.pdf

this is a direct link to the download page, but may not allow you to enter a security code.

The schematic at the bottom of that manual happens to have check points for voltages ( hand written ).

There seems to be 4 fuses. The most obvious case is to check the fuses and make sure they are functional. If they are not, why did they open?

Power supplies drop in voltage purely from current limiting sometimes, and there could be nothing wrong just configured incorrectly or drawing too much current into a load.

If need be, start checking the voltages from the beginning stages up to the end stages.
