    Power supply wiring help needed

    I could sure use a little help assembling a power supply.

    I have a couple of 24V, 10A LP-520 transformers, a 26,000uF capacitor and a bridge rectifier. I'd like to wire it all up to power my Gecko G201's and MGC 258 oz steppers. In bipolar parallel, the steppers are rated at 2.31 V and 4.20 amps.

    Rather than trying to describe all the colors and numbers, I made up a small diagram. You'll see that I have arbitrarily supplied numbers to the wires on the transformers. So, hopefully, someone can tell me to connect wire #xxx to #yyy etc and when all is done, the smoke stays inside the parts.

    Feel free to offer advice on whether my parts are properly matched, Series vs parallel, etc.

    Looking forward to being enlightened.

    Thanks everyone
