broken built his without using a PSU with 12V supply... His is 5V only...

This is the link for a PSU like his , but has the 12V supply , too... :

This is the link for the one broken has :

The thread with the pics of the smaller one ( excellent pics/info by broken ) :

Looking at the 2 wire AC input on both those power supplies you will need to know which is the L (Hot) and the N (Neutral).


Typically the Hot connection is a black wire and the Neutral is a white wire. The ground is typically a green or green with yellow stripe wire.

Each link to the different psu's have a tech doc in pdf that you can view to determine which is which since they don't appear to be marked on the PSU's.


To connect the PSU to an AC cord you will need an AC receptacle like this one:

<a href="http://www.jameco.com/cgi-bin/ncommerce3/ExecMacro/Jameco/searchResult.d2w/report?sort=BKW&search=16651" target="_blank">http://www.jameco.com/cgi-bin/ncommerce3/ExecMacro/Jameco/searchResult.d2w/report?sort=BKW&search=16651</a>

On it there should be markings as to which is the N and which is the L. Wire the N directly to the connector for the N on the PSU.

You will want to install a power switch and a fuse also if the psu you are looking at doesn't have one. The one I used didn't have a fuse. Wire them inline on the L ( Hot) connection to the PSU.

Jameco also offers some of these AC receptacle's with a fuse and switch. You might want to look at one of those.

The ground pin is the round bottom pin on the receptacle and you will want to connect it to the corner of the PSU (there will be a marking at one of the corners) and also connect it to the metal chassis.

Double and Triple check everything before plugging it in. I highly suggest picking up an inexpensive multimeter to check all your connections.


Anyone feel free to jump in if missed something or overlooked anything.
