Super - I have now found the diode you mentioned. Thank you very much - it has 
made me somewhat comfortable now!!

Andy  there is a Zener diode (BZW50-15) protection. 
I have not been bold enough to actually testing it :-) 
Download the schematics

Emne: [Elecraft] K3 overvoltage protection 

Hi guys, I am a new owner of a K3 serial number 6990 (must say I am mighty 
impressed by it) and considering its cost I wondered if it had overvoltage 
protection. I dread the thought of destroying my K3 due to PSU failure! I have 
searched the past postings and cannot find anything relevant to the K3. 

If not I will make up ma "crowbar" circuit.
