If they are savvy with wiring they could bridge the braeker with a auto bulb and let it charge thru that. It would limit current inrush. When the bulb dims and goes out it indicates the caps are full, then flip the breaker and it should hold.
Just an idea.

Although since I don't REALLY know them all that well, and they're in Spain, i'll keep it safe and have them wait for the real fuse to come in I think.
Thanks so much for all this information ! [ Parent ]
You are welcome
Careful with the accolades. People might start to think I do more than anger new users around here.
DO NOT tell Glen I agreed with him. It could get messy.
Glad to help.
Sorry guys, and sorry twice to TomW. Way too much time on my hands today. Busy waiting. I'll pull it in a day or 2. G-[ Parent ]
Go ahead, really. Like our latest irate blocked from posting new user, I got more IP addresses and email accounts than you could ever block.
No harm no foul.
Despite the common theory, I do have a sense of humor just no patience.
I love helping folks with practical advice if I feel I know the answer. The playing security guard is just the punishment for offering to help 6 or 7 years back! [:=}
Just to make sure I don't make TomW frustrated... :)
Thanks again .. [ Parent ]
