It is an enclosed power supply.
The connector labels indicated as input, output and output return.
Input label as 110VAC and output is +24VDC and output return as 24RTN.
What is the '24RTN' connector for? Is it just the negative terminal for the 24V?
What gadget (toy? audio? starter-motor? ....) is the supply intended to power?
What are the approximate dimensions/weight?
For chemelec - I knew to check the current with open circuitry but since this is enclosed unit which only has 3 terminals as I decribed below. I'm quite to understand when you said, "Put an Amp-Meter In Series with either the Input Line ...." You meant the + and - lead of Amp-Meter on the +24VDC terminal? Pls expalin details!
For MikeMl - Just wanted to know how to check current when P/S is turned ON.

Do you mean the instantaneous current drawn from the mains at the instant of switch-on? Or the continuous mains current after switch-on when the supply is powering a load? Or the load current at the instant of switch-on? Or.......?
If the loads are 24 VDC loads being supplied by a 24 VDC supply the loads need to be placed in parallel. Additionally if the supply is a 50 Amp maximum supply and each load can draw as much as 30 Amps you cannot supply both loads at their maximum which would be a combined 60 Amp load.
If you want to measure (monitor) the load current you can use either a current shunt method or a hall effect sensor method.
If you shop around a bit, you may find a dmm with a clamp on for AC current as well as DC. They are infinitely easier to use than a conventional intrusive meter, especially when you're dealing with numerous (+'s) and (-'s)
