Title: Power entry plug with switch for back of arcade machine
Post by: syph007 on June 29, 2011, 09:11:38 am
I was about to order one from lizard lick but they are out of stock.  Any one else know an alternate source?

Just a note on the one linked in the previous post. You'll need to make a plate to mount it with since its a snap in style....no mounting tabs. Some sheet metal should work fine, or maybe even plexi if it snaps into 1/8" securely (if it doesn't you can glue it in from the reverse side).

I ordered this one awhile ago and just got to the part of my build where I want to solder the wires onto the back of this thing.

There are seven spades coming out of it.  Anyone know which I use and how I link them together to make the LED work?

From looking at the pic this is my analysis of the terminals.

Hook line from fuse to switch 2 and get your switched power from switch 1.

Does not look to be any eternal lighting contacts so if it is lit it is internal and 120V

The small terminal on the line buss is not required to be connected
