Bella's Arcade [FINISHED]

Kaytrim:
If you want to extra careful, you may be over doing it but with little ones you never know.  Use some hot glue.  I did on Dad's Bartop.  The link will take you directly to the post that shows the install of the plug.

Kaytrim:
As far as little kids being inquisitive I have a story to tell about my son.  He was about 2-3 years old playing behind me while I was working on my home computer.  Next thing I know is that he is crying his eyes out.  I ask him what is wrong and he says "It bit me!" pointing to the wall socket.  I look at the socket and here is a bent paper clip stuck in the socket.  Needless to say the paper clip was bridged across the two slots and now live.  I had to use a pair of pliers to pull it out so I didn't get 'bit' too.  :laugh2:  We can laugh about it now but it could have been a serious situation.

Those things do bite from time to time.

I don't think you have anything to worry about though. The exposed metal you are worried about is already protected by an enclosure...the cabinet.

Can someone tell me if I wired it properly?  I went green to green [ground - I'm pretty sure about this], black to black [negative] and white to red [positive].

What happens if I reverse positive and negative?

Thanks!

Kaytrim:
Your good to go there.  Plug that baby in and let 'er rip. :applaud:
