    Chinese Power Supply connections

    I purchased a 36v 10a switching power supply off of ebay for $35. It apparently took a slow boat from China.

    Anyway, twenty days later I have a nice looking power supply. The legend for the terminals is +v, -v, <ground symbol>, N, and L.

    Am I safe to assume that 'N' might mean neutral, and 'L' means, um, maybe line?

    In other words, 110 connects to N and L, correct?

    Pretty safe to assume that.

    Thanks, I thought so, but didn't want to make assumptions and fry it.
