Yes, your absolutely right.
The circuit is a 220VAC/2x35VAC transformer, followed by a full wave
rectifier, and a 10KuF cap.
After that, there is a dummy load (100K resistor).

Well, maybe as you've suggested there's some interaction
between the transformers during the initial turn-on
inrush. You should also verify that there's no shorts
to ground for any of the transformer windings.

Have you considered using slo-blo fuses?
