Thanks Gerhard and Terry
Lots of useful information about plug pin connections. I did find some info
on internet but yours was more than helpful
I managed to get 6 units today Chieftec 12v at 15 amps (yellow wires) plus
all the other useful voltages like 5 v high current.
I intend to use these in series at 12v to give me a total of 72 v. and keep
them individually insulated from each other, this is easier than separating
the cct board from earth.
Thanks agn to all that replied
