HP-23 Circuit Breaker

[Garey Barrell]

Might better make is a "slow-blow" fuse.  Circuit breakers have a 
"slow-blow" characteristic because they are heat activated.  This may be 
where the "fuse not working" comes from, a "fast-blow" fuse can't handle 
the turn on surge to charge up the filter caps.
