Most supplies of this type need a load to regulate properly. Probably 1 A

then just apply AC power and it should work.


Thanks for such a fast reply.

Apparently there's no other connection between the PS and the equipment it belongs to, so that may well be the solution.

I'll get the PS and try that.

Thanks for your input.
