power supplies chained together

[TonyV225]

when this configuration is used do they have to be the same amperage?? Or can they be linked aslong as there voltage is set the same big connected to smaller or vise versa

Same amperage

I am confused by your question? I ran 2 Astron RS70M power supplies together which provides 140 amp surge

In fact the supply has had directions to connect 2 together to increase amperage and it even has the connector on the back when hooking 2 of them together

Hamer I was was asking for example is if I could hook my 52 amper to my 80 amper as long as the voltage was the same??

Amps

If you "chain 'em together", are they under arrest?

(Sorry, I am just feeling good today!)

hahaha....funny :naughty

You can, but don't try to run anything that takes more draw than 100 amps.

N o what I meant by chaing was making it so nobody could walk of woith them or steal them. I would chain them to a rack system next to thre bench. What about a car alrm setup on them that may work. HMMMM Hey mole I got a project for ya!!!!!!!LMAO!!!!!!!
