Power Supply 5V/12V/24V/48V for 3D printer:
Power Supply 12v/24v adapter is mainly used for Computer projects and 3D printers.
Power Supply advantages:
- Most appliances, especially those used domestically, operate either on a 12 volt or a 24 volt power system.
- Therefore, it is an added advantage to have both power cord and power socket for connections working for you at the same time.
- If that is not an option, know the advantages and disadvantages of both systems to help you choose between them.
Advantages
- Using a 24 volt supply instead of a 12 volt supply greatly reduces the wiring cost to almost half the original cost.
- This is so because increasing the voltage of a system causes a reduction in the current through it, and in turn reduces the size of the wires you need .
- The reduction in wire size cuts down the costs, as the thicker the wire the more costly it is. Another advantage of 24 volt supplies is that they are more compatible with AC appliances.
- However, in case you need a 12 volt supply, it is easy to step down the voltage from 24 volts to 12 volts using a charge controller.
- Use a 12 volt system when you intend to run appliances directly from batteries.
- This is a safer voltage for DC circuits as opposed to any higher operating voltages.
- Most appliances, especially those used domestically, operate on 12 volt systems making this voltage the most widely used therefore rendering 24 volt systems unnecessary and counterproductive to have one.
- As much as 12 volt systems are most popular, they have a shortcoming: the charge regulators cannot easily step up this voltage to higher voltages because most of them only work in the reverse.
- The wiring systems are also costly, compared to higher voltage systems.
