Mains Filter/Conditioner

[Pingushome]

Hi All,
Some years ago I had a diagram of a mains conditioner made by good old Maplins.
It had a handful of caps, 7 or 8 VDRs and two encapsulated RFI filter back to back.
I’m rearranging the system and thought I might use one. Just a thought
Does anyone have the circuit? it was a free Maplin project
Thank in advance
Martin

Hi Martin, this sounds very similar to the one from Hi-Fi world magazine, I built one and it is still in use but, I don't remember it making much if any change, I will try and copy the parts and circuit, from memory it composes X2 and Y capacitors, a few resistors and two chokes fitted back to back all on a tag board.

Thanks Bob yes it does sound like it. I don’t remember the HFW one myself but it sounds very similar.
The Maplins one was in a box with one outlet but you could use a multi socket extension off it or of course build it into a multi socket box. Providing the RFI filters power rating was observed.
Any info gratefully received
Thanks Bob
Martin

Thanks Alan that’s spot on exactly the one I was on about. Guess some others may use this too.
Now all I need is a plastic box and some board
I’ll file those links too Alan
All the best
