Spectravideo SV-328 Power Plug and Receptacle by Nelno

Last crawled date: 2 years, 11 months ago

This is a plug and socket made to replace the plug and socket in an SV-328 computer.
BY USING THIS PLUG AND SOCKET YOU ARE DOING SO AT YOUR OWN RISK. YOU SHOULD VERIFY THAT THIS SOCKET MEETS GUIDELINES FOR POWER PLUGS WHERE IT WILL BE USED.
THE SV-328 HAS AC POWER COMING DIRECTLY INTO THE MOTHERBOARD THROUGH THE POWER RECEPTACLE SO THERE IS A REAL RISK OF ELECTROCUTION IF YOU ARE NOT A PROFESSIONAL.
This will only be useful to you if you no longer have a working original SV-328 power supply, receptacle and plug. If you have the original plug and socket you may be much better off reusing that with another power supply vs. printing this.
The plug is not compatible with the original SV-328 power receptacle on the computer. I did not have the original (that is the first piece that broke) to even attempt to make it fit. There is another project out there somewhere (sorry, I don't know the link) that is a replacement plug for the original socket.
This plug is designed to be used with 0.062 inch Molex connectors. The male connectors go in the receptacle and the females in the plug. This is important because YOU DO NOT WANT LIVE AC VOLTAGE ON EXPOSED PINS ON THE PLUG (POWER) SIDE!!
See the links for the Molex connectors and the power supply I used for my repair.
YOU MUST ABSOLUTELY VERIFY YOU HAVE THE PIN OUTS CORRECT BEFORE PLUGGING IN. DO THIS WITH A MULTI-METER TO VERIFY THE CORRECT VOLTAGES ARE ON THE CORRECT PINS OR YOU CAN DESTROY YOUR SV-328.
