Connect  the  8-pin  or  4-pin  ATX12V  connector  for  the  CPU  to  the  appropriate  connector  on  your 
motherboard.  If  your  motherboard  has  an  8-pin  socket  with  a  cover  on  some  of  the  openings,  we 
recommend that you remove the cover and use the 8-pin connector. 

Note:

 Please also refer to your motherboard user’s manual for any special instructions.

Connect the cables from the cable pack to the socket on the power supply as needed. If you are going to 
plug the additional PCI-E cable into the PSU, it should go into the red socket. If the red socket is not being 
used for PCI-E, then it can be used for another cable from the pack that accompanied the PSU.

supplied  with  your  TP-550.  Turn  the  switch  to  the  “|”  position  after  you  have  connected  all  the  devices 
and are ready to turn on your computer.
