[Jukebox-list] RE: Wurlitzer 750-E

[Mechanical Music of S.F.]

Hi.
You could run the leads to the protectors out a small hole in the back of 
the terminal box, maybe, by mounting it just off the surface on some runner 
grommets. That way, your hole won't show, and then you could run the leads 
to a simple 3 place fuse block.  You know, the kind that you simply pop the 
exposed fuses into and out of.
Would look the part and be very simple and easy to reverse.

It's small enough, maybe you could put it IN the box.  Not sure with how 
much space you're dealing with.

Hope this helps or spurs another idea.

Like this one:

Or this ceramic one.  That would really be period-ish.

Hi,

I am cleaning the pieces of my 750 while we wait for
the plating etc.  I am now at the Electrical Selector
Terminal Box.  It is the item with the transformer for
supplying power to the selection system and has the 24
terminals for the jukebox selector coils as well as
wallboxes if used.

There are 3 circuit breakers (Wurlitzer called them
"Protectors" in the 40's) and I don't really want to
use them.  I would rather mount 3 fuse holders to the
bottom of the terminal box or somewhere to replace
them.  I don't particularly like the looks of the old
circuit breakers but I also hate to drill holes in the
terminal box for the fuse holders.  Has anyone
suggestions?  I also wondered if anyone knew the
current rating of these circuit breakers, if not I
will use the lowest value fuse possible for each.

I really appreciate reading this list and most of all
everyone's advice!
