Thanks a lot for your answer Scott, so can we think
the same way about the a MOTM 950 power supply which draws +-15 v 800 mA, 800 mA
from each power supply for a 1600 mA total? (Plus the +5V 3mA of
course).
Thank you again.

Current is drawn separately through the +15V and -15V supplies. So
you could have 30 mA drawn from +15V and 20 mA drawn from -15V. I
suppose if a module draws the same amount from each supply that this
could be annotated as "+-15 V 15 mA" meaning that it draws 15 mA from
each supply for 30 mA total.
