Abstract
An A.C. power entry module for supplying A.C. power to equipment which provides A.C. fusing, power on-off switching, RFI filtering and selection of voltage. The module can be utilized for both U.S. and European style fusing and a number of different voltage options are available which can be selected by merely changing the position of a circuit board. The contacts for engaging the fuses are mounted such that an operator cannot come in contact with them and the European or U.S. fuses can be easily selected by inverting a fuse holder board.
