I am trying to replace a failed meanwell rsp 1000-48. Can I replace this expensive unit that cant be rebuilt with 3 lrs 350-48 power supplies? I am currently running my ldd drivers off a terminal strip that is powered with the one 48 volt power supply. I need 1000w and 20 amp output to power my leds. Would I just run each outputs from the 3 smaller power supplies to a common terminal strip? would they pull equally off each unit or possibly pull harder on one unit over another?
I have tried to have 2 of the rsp 1000-48 repaired and both times told they are too expensive to repair. I dont want to get into this situation again.
thanks

I ordered 3 of the lrs 350-48 supplies. Upon recommendation I will run 3 separate terminal strips each fed with it's own supply. I really like this idea, that way if I loose one I will still have lights just not full strength.
