bare power supply cover

thingiverse

I had a few bare 12v 30a power supply units around that were cheap and worked well but had a virtually unprotected terminal strip for the 120v and 12v connections. I made up a cover for the terminals end of the supply that includes a fused, switched AC connector, a voltage readout, and three 12v supply connections made up of Anderson Power Pole connectors. I made use of the Anderson Power Pole virtual punch by Loughkb: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2783449 The cover is held in place by three M3 screws (two on one side, one on the other). I was fortunate that all three units, acquired from the same Amazon supplier eTopxizu 12v 30a Dc Universal Regulated Switching Power Supply), had their tapped holes in the same locations. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00D7CWSCG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 The fused switched power inlet, also from Amazon, is this one: Ximimark 3 Pcs Sodial(R) Inlet Male Power Socket with Fuse Switch 10A 250V 3 Pin. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07F3YLSVQ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Some trimming of the mounting tabs is needed to accommodate the case front thickness. The voltage readout, also from Amazon, is this one: Bayite 3 Wire 0~30V Digital Voltmeter Gauge Tester Blue LED Display Panel Mount. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00YALV0NG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 The display is held in place by a couple of drops of cyanoacrylate glue on the tabs on the backside of the case front.
