: Tim Time Projects · I wanted to replace the selenium rectifier. I took some voltage readings off the Selenium Rectifier ( 1/2 wave, not full wave) while it was still in the circuit. The positive connection from the selenium rectifier is connected to one side of the 125 V power transformer output and the negative side of the rectifier is connected to a voltage divider

· The positive mark on a selenium rectifier is the banded end on a modern diode. Basically you'd put the modern diode in place of the old rectifier stack with the resistor. If the voltage is too high, adjust the value of that resistor to make up for it. I'd probably put a small terminal strip in place of the rectifier and mount your diode to that.
