Group buy: DCT03 DC trap (filter) for toroidal transformers

The main bits you need are:
16x P600J-E3/54 Diodes
6x EPCOS 68000uF 16v snap in
4x Wago 256-402 Terminal Strip
4x M4 standoffs for mounting the PCB

As for a box, that is more likely a personal choice. I went with a moderately big 240x160x90mm sized polycarb box as I'm fitting a few outlets, a fuse and power switch. I may also add an EMI filter to it aswell.

 
The sockets are Neutrik powercon. I have a 12 way mains distribution unit that I use for my hifi which has all powercon outlets, so all my hifi is already wired up with the necessary plugs.

The blue is power in and the grey are outlets.

Finished fitting the diodes this evening. Just the box wiring left to do now.


Those large tracks absorb a heck of a lot of heat and are take a while to solder even with a 70W iron.
 
Hi PA. I ordered some boards from your webshop. For the diodes, I have 10A10 1kV diodes on hand. Can I use these or are 6A required? And for caps, is the uF the most important factor or is high ripple current most desired? Thanks!
