Checking the Power Supply

    
      It was September 29, 2011 , Thursday, when I and my partner decided to be check our power supply. Our instructor Maam Florendo, put our power supply in a box together with Mike and Jinalyn's power supply. Then she test if our power supply passed the quality control. How?  About  one and a half meter above the floor, she dropped the box. Ouch! Then, when our power supply was already on my hands, she grab it quickly and dropped it again. Ouch! for the second time. 
     After, we opened our PS to check if the parts had destroyed. Unfortunately, our PCB broke, but maam said, it will still works. So we felt relieved! Then she, cut the wire (4.5v) connected in the rotary switch to test if the wiring is correct. We plugged our PS to the outlet, placed the dynamo on the OUTPUTS (+,-),  when I switched it on,it didn't work at all. We felt very disappointed! We found out that our rotary switch was also destroyed, therefore we didn't pass the test. :(
    Luckily, our instructor have such a good heart, so, she gave us second chance to repair our power supply. So we immediately replaced the rotary switch of the PS. Then on the next day, September 30,2011, Friday, we test again our PS if it is working properly after the repair. Then ma'am Florendo said the magic word  "PASS". We are very very happy after we heard that four-letter word. We even have a picture with our very kind and beautiful instructor, Miss Arrianne Michelle Florendo. Here it is,
