    How Do I Wire This Power Supply?


    I ordered this power supply:
    350W 30V 11.5A Switching Power Supply Radio LED Charger US3
    Unfortunately, I don't know how to hook it up. It has 9 places to connect wires. The label looks a little like this:

    | +V ADJ | +V |_ _ -V _| +=+ | N | L |
    --------- 1 2 3 - 4 5 6 ---7 --- 8 --9

    The +=+ symbol is actually three horizontal lines that get smaller as they go down and it has a vertical line above that in the center. I think its the ground symbol.

    Anyway, could you please tell me what goes where. I am trying to hook it up to a small controller board. Where does the 120V go in and where does the 30V come out?

    Thank you

    The +V ADJ is for minor adjustment of the Positive 30 Volts.

    1 2 3: +V is the Positive 30 volts out three terminals 30 volts each.

    4 5 6: -V is the negative or ground (return) for the 30 volts three terminals.

    7: That is a grd. (earth ground) symbol. This is where your green wire (US)
    connects to ground all metal cases. The round terminal on the plug that plugs in your outlet.

    8: N is the neutral return (white wire) connection. This is the large or wide spade of the plug that plugs in your outlet.

    9: L is the 120V load (black wire) that connects to the small terminal or spade of your plug that plugs in your outlet
