Switched Power Inlet Mount

cults3d

Mounting block for a switched power inlet comes in handy when you need to insert the power cord. Before doing so, press the tabs on either side of the inlet outwards towards the sides. You might also need to flip or mirror the part to get the switch oriented just right - it's removable and can be rotated. Wiring the switch calls for insulated 0.187" female spade connectors, preferably in 22-16 gauge or 14-16 gauge wire. This setup is ideal for a reliable connection. One thing to keep in mind: the power inlets don't come with a fuse pre-installed. For use with a 3D printer, you might want to consider adding a 250V 5mmx20mm fast blow fuse - its current rating will depend on your specific printer model.
