Hello Ricardo,

to start with the most important remark:

I would not do any thing here if you are alone. Watchout that someone is
near you who might be able to help you and/or call for help, if you
suffer a powerstroke!!!



I don't know the wiring for this power inlet, but I assume it works like
that:

In the picture "switch 6":

Connector N is obiviously "N"
Connector L is fed to the fuse and the fuses output is labled "S" (below N).
Connector E is the Ground/Earth connector

In the picture "switch 7":

this is assumingly a double pole single throw switch.
I assume 3B connects to 4B and 1A connects to 2A
You should control this with an ohm-meter.

So you might wire this socket like that:

N -> 1A 2A -> MeanWell N
S -> 3B 4B -> MeanWell L
E -> Meanwell Gnd


Again picture "switch 6":

The socket says "10A 250v" because this is the maximum rating which is
allowed on this socket. It does not name the rating of the fuse!
The rating of the fuse can be read from the input current specification
http://www.jameco.com/Jameco/Products/ProdDS/123290.pdf
1.2A for 115V or 0.6A for 230V. The fuse should be of the type "slow
blow" (this thing has f***ing high inrush current).


If you bought this power inlet from Doepfer, then we should wait for
Dieters answer, since he should know this spare part. You also might
then have a look at the wiring of the original power inlet in this case.
