Depending on your cabinet, you may be able to mount the larger supply near to the MOTM-900 panel. You may be able to reuse the original AC wiring from the panel to the new supply. And you can move the 12-connector distribution board from the MOTM0-900 panel and locate it in a more convenient spot. I use dot com cabinets and mount the MOTM power supply panels on the back with the supply chassis fastened down to the wood just in front of the panel. I mount it length-wise to make more clearance for modules in front of it. -Richard Brewster Greg Amann wrote: > The 800 mA Power One supply that comes in the MOTM-900 is a different > size (namely, smaller) than the HBB15-1.5A.
