No fixed ratings are recorded for this section.

Shuguang Chinese 12G2P diode section 1 of two physical diodes. Manufacturer specifies maximum anode current 1 mA for EACH diode, not a rectified DC output-current rating; kept in notes rather than rectifier_nominal_output_current. Other diode maximum ratings and typical rectified currents not reliably provided. Indirect heater 12.6 V 0.15 A, heater-cathode max 100 V. Common cathode relationship not definitively verified; base code unassigned.
