Western Electric Rectifier?

[GSTATUS]

My grandfather passed away last month and left me tools and other items. He was an electricion and among the items i found a Western Electric Rectifier from 1976.
Does anybody know wtf this is? It's worth?
I tried looking it up and couldn't find the one i have and there seems to be a broad range of types of rectifiers.
Is it worth selling this?

Need pics and model numbers.

Some NOS full wave rectifier tubes go for 1500 bucks.

Snaps - the model number is - KS 15620 L23

Appears to be old school copper POTS telecommunications test gear.

Not really a desirable piece.

Dare you to charge it up and put a screw driver across one of those caps

Maybe parts value from some HAM radio nerd.

It looks like a inverter circuit to me

It coverts dc to ac im pretty sure

But a actual rectifier is small smaller than that

And the common use for a rectifier is the opposite of a inverter

If you think its a inverter instead of a rectifier then you chould us that inverter for solar power panels if im not mistaken
