Transformer wiring in Diycable UCD kit ?.
« on: 6 Jan 2006, 01:26 am »
Hello,

I am trying to assemble the UCD180 kit from Diycable.
Kevin was kind enough to pack it up and ship it before he left for the show……

The kit is simple enough and I have it wired up, almost.

The transformer has four wires coming out of it and the power supply has three places for these wires to connect to.

Two places are marked with a “~”
While one place is marked with a “0”

The wires from the transformer are marked.

Blk 0V
Ora 0V
Red 30V
Yellow 30V

There is no references to positive or negative.

Any idea how to wire it ?.

Thanks,

Branwell

Black and Yellow go to the two ~ connectors.
Orange and Red are wired together to the "0" connector.

In case you want to convince yourself this is right look at the following documents:
