Walter,

The converter is quite complex inside, I have one I am working on when
ambition and time permit, no progress so far as this one requires removal of
9 heat sink clamps, on transistors, just to remove the pc board.  The
converters are 120 VAC to 12 VDC and have output ratings of 30 Amps or more.
I don't have a schematic and not sure any are available, (have not searched
on internet).

Good luck, this is a project for slow times!
