The new rectifier will replace the old one, but the striped end goes to where the + end of the selenium was. By process of elimination, the unstriped end goes to where the other selenium rectifier lead was.

· Is it safe to say, in this case that I can simply do a swap of the selenium for a 1N4007 and not worry about adding more resistance? From what I've read because the voltage drop of a selenium is higher about 7-10V, and the 1N4007 is only 0.7V, you would need to add a small resistor such as 100 ohm in series with it to achieve the same

· Rectification: Selenium rectifiers were used to convert AC voltage into DC voltage, similar to silicon diodes. They allow current to flow in one direction only, blocking the reverse current flow. Construction: Selenium rectifiers were typically constructed as stacks of selenium wafers, with metal electrodes attached to them.

· A rectifier is a diode which converts alternating current (known as AC) to direct current (DC). DC only flows in one direction whereas AC regularly reverses direction. Rectifiers allow current to flow in a single direction. Rectifiers take alternating voltage and converts it into high quality direct voltage needed for your telecom equipment.

· JohnLillig. Usually a selenium rectifier drops a volt or 1.5 or so per plate, or 5 to 10 volts usually in a stacked rectifier. On tubes, sometimes the extra bias voltage is not a bad thing, but yeah you would need to use Ohm's Law and figure out the specs of the resistor to use for correct or spec voltage.
