Did you print it in PLA? It's hygroscopic. I wouldn't put mains near it.
My approach on these in the future are going to be making a blanking plate with a cable strain relief and either a dangling IEC socket or a captive mains lead.
Although I managed to avoid that at the weekend with the 400E as it had an IEC already

Yeah, I know, but I've read up on it and it's all a bit scare-mongering exaggerated. It never absorbs enough water to become dangerously conductive. There are documented experiments where a PLA part was left underwater for several years and it still kept its structure and isolation.

A IEC 60320 C6 "mickey mouse" inlet can normally be fitted in place of the old HP inlet. Often without changing the original metal work

I was hoping to keep it as original as possible, but I will keep that in mind for "Plan B".

If anyone wants this go go go go. 500Mhz scope plus Agilent PSU £180. I can’t take it due to delivery constraints.

Wow thanks for that ! I never knew this series of scopes, HP branded / nice looking, were available with such high specs and a COLOUR screen ! :scared:
I learned something..... :-+
