Since the two bulk supplies are having 8 H744's
(25A versions) I was
just wondering about the feasebility of replacing them with standard
PC XT power supplies (just for the 5V), as the usually deliver also
between 25A and 30A, depending on the model. The large transformer in
the bulk supply will then be replaced with a smaller transformer to
deliver the LTC, DCLO, ACLO and +15V via the power monitor module
which is still there.
How can a normal PC XT power supply deliver 25-30A, when its plugged
into a normal 15A wall socket? Or is the amperage way different in
the UK?
