Power Supply / Speaker Model 962
Description
The Model 962 Power Supply is designed to power the TEN-TEC Models 560/561/563/564 and 585 transceivers. The supply delivers 20 amps at 13.5 Vdc from a 115/230 Vac 50/60 Hz source. Circuit features include an electronic over-current sensor which shuts off the output if the current demand exceeds 22 amps. The over-current shut down condition is reset by cycling the POWER switch from ON to OFF and back to ON.
The output voltage is available through a 4 x 14 guage 3 foot cable and connector. The cable carries +13.5 Vdc, ground and the "hot" side of the AC primary and mates directly to the POWER jack on the 560/561/563/564 and 585 transceivers with a 4 pin AMP MATE-N-LOC connector. Two RCA phono jacks on the back of the supply also provide +13.5 Vdc for low current (2 or 3 amps) auxiliary applications.

Difference Between Models 961 and 962
From a post on the Ten-Tec Reflector:
"they regulate the neg (-) line in the 962, where they regulated the pos (+) line in the older 961."
