TP-550C
Antec’s TruePower Classic series sets new standards for power supplies. TruePower Classic is one of the first series to comply with the toughest energy standard available, ErP Lot 6: 2013. By using a PSU that is 80 PLUS® GOLD certified, operating up to 92% efficient, you can reduce your electricity bill by up to 20% when compared to many other power supplies. Backed by a 5 year warranty and lifetime global
24/7 support, the TP-550C is the guaranteed gold standard for power.
STANDARDS AND FEATURES
The connectors and power specifications of the TP-550C PSU are all compatible with ATX12V v2.4 and
EPS12V v2.92 specifications. The TP-550C features Universal Input, which automatically senses when you connect the power supply to any AC power source between 100 - 240V without setting a voltage switch. This power supply also features Active Power Factor Correction (PFC), which improves the power factor value of the power supply by altering the input current wave shape, helping to power transmission across the grid.
SYSTEM PROTECTION
A variety of industrial-grade safety circuitry will help protect your computer: Over Current Protection
(OCP), Over Voltage Protection (OVP), Under Voltage Protection (UVP), Short Circuit Protection (SCP),
Over Power Protection (OPP), Over Temparature Protection (OTP), Surge & Inrush Protection (SIP) &
No Load Operation (NLO). Sometimes the PSU will “latch” into a protected state. You will need to power off the PSU and clear the fault before it will function again. There are no user-replaceable fuses in your TP-550C.

80 PLUS® CERTIFICATION
80 PLUS® certification is the most widely recognized independent standard in power supply efficiency. An 80
PLUS® certified power supply uses less energy and generates less heat to stay cooler, run quieter and last longer. The TP-550C has been 80 PLUS® GOLD certified to be at least 87% efficient at a wide range of operating loads; this will lower your operating costs and help protect the environment.

INSTALLATION
Install the PSU into either the top or bottom of your case with the four screws provided. Refer to your case manual if you are unsure where the power supply should be installed.
Connect the 24-pin main power connector to your motherboard.
Connect the 8-pin or 4+4-pin connector for the CPU. 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 motherboards manual for any special instructions.

Connect the AC power cord to the power supply AC inlet. Be sure to use the heavy-duty cord supplied with your PSU.
PCI-E graphics cards use different amounts of power. For some, a single 6-pin connector is sufficient, making the hardwired connector the preferred choice. More powerful cards use multiple connectors, including the advanced 8-pin PCI-E connector. The 8-pin PCI-E connector on the PSU can be used as either a 6- or 8-pin connector.
Hard drives, optical drives (CD/DVD/BluRay™) and other accessories will use either the older 4-pin
Molex connector or the newer 15-pin SATA connector. 4-pin Molex connectors have two black, one yellow and one red wire. The SATA connector has an additional orange power wire.
When you have all the connections secured, turn the switch on the PSU to the “|” position.
