    What is the best was to splice electrical wire to power two components? (Arcade power supply and LCD

    Cool thank you, I'll put an inline fuse in for both. As an IEC socket I was looking at this: https://uk.rs-online.com/mobile/p/iec-filters/5393638/ The IEC socket fused at 10 amp and then both monitor and PSU with 5 amp inline fuses? Does that sound ok considering: This is from the manual for...

    What is the best was to splice electrical wire to power two components? (Arcade power supply and LCD

    The monitor has an IEC socket for it's power in and it came with a kettle lead that was fused at 13a. Regarding current etc. This is from the manual for the monitor: AC input voltage/frequency/current 100 to 240 VAC/50 or 60 Hz + 3 Hz/1.5A (Max.) Inrush current 120V:42A (Max.) 240V:80A (Max.)...

    Cool, thanks guys! Would the fuses terminal blocks here be suitable for putting inline fuses in for the PSU and monitor? Plug Top 20mm and 25mm (1 Inch) Fused Terminal Block | maplin - https://www.maplin.co.uk/p/plug-top-20mm-and-25mm-1-inch-fused-terminal-block-tz17t However, I was thinking...

    What is the best was to splice electrical wire to power two components? (Arcade power supply and LCD

    Cool thanks, I think I'll go with that then. The arcade set up is going to be jamma, I will be using a Pandora's box multi game jamma board. The plan is to set it up so I can switch the Pandora's box for original arcade jamma pcbs as and when I acquire them. Should I just be fusing the live...

    What is the best was to splice electrical wire to power two components? (Arcade power supply and LCD

    Thanks sparkychic! That's some really good info. Those din rail mounted terminals look quite complicated though. Would it be safe to use the piggy back connectors at the IEC socket as Spoon suggested and then wire up the two components via appropriate inline fuses? All these electronics will be...

    What is the best was to splice electrical wire to power two components? (Arcade power supply and LCD

    That looks pretty cool. So I could just cut the wire half way after the IEC socket, reconnect with these crimps and run the monitor off the "piggy back”connections?

    What is the best was to splice electrical wire to power two components? (Arcade power supply and LCD

    Here is a picture of an arcade power supply. The bottom 3 connectors are AC and ground, the upper connections are 12v+ 5v+ ground etc. Here is also as picture of the back of the IEC socket I'm planning to use. The IEC socket had a built in EMI filter and is fused at 6a. I've been told ideally...

    What is the best was to splice electrical wire to power two components? (Arcade power supply and LCD

    Hi! I m doing my first build of an arcade machine. At the back of the arcade cabinet will be an IEC socket for mains power. Inside the machine I then need to split the electrical wires so that the one socket can power both the power supply for the console board (standard jamma power supply) and...
