I have a Robotron that I finally got up and running. Had it on for a few hours and the fuse on the main transformer block blew. I never looked at it before so I pulled it out and noticed it was a 3A. I put another in and it blew immediately. What should this fuse be? 3A seems low to me for the main AC line, but I really don't know.

Thanks.

Fast fuses will blow because the transformer sucks up a lot of power initially. 3A slow blow fuses will survive that start up current surge.
