What is the tripler "ref post"?

Speaking of triplers....a bad tripler wouldn't cause the problem I'm having, could it? If so, I do have the new tripler with built-in focus. Was keeping it more as a spare since I have the new focus divider installed.
A tripler will cause it. So can yoke, HOT bias, the white caps, FBT or any
heavy load or mismatch on the FBT. The ref. is the ABL terminal. If you
dont do the bulb at least do the heat check. But if its really loaded
down the HOT will INSTANT death. We used the variac to bring
them up slowly & watch the current but ive used the bulb also.
It will protect the HOT & save $$.
