thingiverse

This is an essential switch box designed specifically for the Milled/Printed 3D Printer PrusaI3 style, accessible at http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1524754. The box securely attaches to existing screws on the MP3DP. Printer Settings: Printer Brand: Printrbot Printer Model: Simple Black Rafts: No Rafts Supports: No Supports Resolution: 0.2 mm Infill: 30% Notes: The print includes support material designed to minimize waste, as described in Post-Printing instructions. Post-Printing Instructions: This design incorporates support structures for bridging. A thin layer is printed under overhangs for holes to print on, and this layer is removed after printing. The thin triangle support near the hole can be cut off. Before removing support material: After removing support material: Switch Wiring: Note the switch orientation: in this picture, wide spaced terminals are at the bottom. Before inserting the switch, plan its location and position it so ON is up. To illuminate the switch light when power is on: Solder a short jumper from the fused Line terminal to one side of the switch, then solder a wire to the close-spaced terminals on the same side. This wire will connect to the L terminal (Line) on the power supply. Solder another short jumper wire to the other close-spaced terminal. This smaller wire carries only the load of the internal switch light and connects to the unfused terminal, also connecting a second wire to the N terminal (Neutral) of the power supply. Finally, solder a ground wire to the ground terminal and connect it to the ground terminal of the power supply.
