• Modular power supply is a method for connecting
  power to a load that uses standardized
  connectors. This contrasts with hard-wired power
  (connections are made with conductors that cannot
  be disconnected without cutting the conductor or
  connector). There are several advantages to
  modular power supplies no need to cut or strip
  wires, less chance of short circuits, and a
  reduced risk of electrical shock.

• Modular electronic equipment can be defined as
  pieces of electronic equipment that are built
  from individual components that can be easily
  separated from the rest of the piece of
  equipment. The definition of modular electronic
  equipment can include the following

• By having a modular power supply, it is possible
  to reduce the amount of space that is needed by a
  power supply and also reduce the cost of the
  power supply because there will be no need to
  have a large and expensive transformer installed
  in order to provide power to the rest of the
  circuit.

• This can allow for more compact designs while
  still allowing for enough current to be provided.
  Having a modular design allows for more efficient
  packaging because there are less parts and
  accessories that are needed when compared to a
  fixed or hard wired design.

• Being able to switch between two different
  voltages on one power supply also reduces the
  amount of space taken up by the power supply when
  compared to using multiple different types of
  power supplies that are designed for different
  voltages.

• The modular power supply, or power supply for
  short, is the heart of any computer. It is a
  small box that converts the A/C (Alternating
  Current) from your wall outlet to the D/C (Direct
  Current) your computer needs in order to
  function. The modular power supply houses many
  different components inside of it including the
  power inductor, voltage regulator, and heatsink.

• A modular power supply allows you to remove and
  replace each component individually. This can be
  very useful depending on the situation. For
  example, if you have a dead CPU you will still be
  able to use your case fans, RAM, hard drives etc.

• All you need to do is get a replacement CPU and
  plug it in place of your old one. Without a
  modular power supply this process would be much
  more difficult as you would need to replace your
  entire power supply with one that contains a
  compatible CPU.

• A modular power supply also makes it much easier
  to clean out dust bunnies. If you have ever
  cleaned out dust bunnies from inside a computer
  case you know how painful it can be. In order for
  it to be done properly you have to take out every
  single component from the computer case including
  the motherboard and graphics card. You then need
  to make sure everything is
