Adding fuse to 38-4.
#4

If the line condenser is ahead of the power switch I would seriously consider rewiring it so it is on the other side of the switch, I'm surprised that Philco would design a set this way, that's more of a Zenith trick which I hate. You could add a fuse on the primary side, on either leg or both, or add one on the filament/cathode leg of the rectifier where it heads to the filter condensers.
Best Regards
Arran
