Wire an IEC 320 C14 Power Socket with LED Rocker Switch - Arcade Build Series

These are a few clips showing how I wired up an "IEC 320 C14 Power Socket with LED Rocker Switch" for one of my arcade builds. Off video I replaced the non insulated quick connectors with proper insulated ones but at the time I just wanted to get the project tested.
I filmed this back in 2018 and there hasn't been any electrical issues with this build. Save the comments section for questions and be helpful to others!

I bought a switch sort of like but originally from a different seller. Don't forget to buy a fuse as well!

Funny enough that I also needed this for an Arcade cabinet I am building.

Glad it can help!

[@davegreen3861]

Excellent, just what I needed - many thanks.

Basic question: what's an "insulated quick connector"?

[@WeBuildStuff]

There are lots of different kinds. Insulated is basically just covered to help prevent short circuits

@@WeBuildStuff Thanks :)

What if my terminal just has two cable, it still ok sir?

[@tonyt8796]

Thanks for the video, I have a IEC 320 connector with a noise filter that protrudes 2" beyond the face. The connections are made at the end of the filter. Do you feel its safe to mount this on a wood keyboard amp frame? There is no room to cut a hole on the metal surface where the transformer, electronics and dials/jacks are mounted. Because the filter is so long, the connections would be clear of the wood surface. Thanks again

[@paultinajero9733]

Your use two diferent sizes of faston terminals bro?

[@Notlisted4u]

what gauge wire should i use to make the jumpers?

[@WeBuildStuff]

Between 16-12g. 16g is usually rated for light duty with 14-12 for heavier duty

[@jack4xxnew]

Depends on the maximum amp you are planning on using and the wire length. You can find a wire diameter calculator that tells what gauge to use for your application.
