I have a power "outlet" from an old computer PS with a + , - , and Ground wire.
I have a computer power chord plugged into it, with the + and - wires stripped and wrapped around two copper wires (from inside the power supply).
Right now, the wires are wrapped around a peice of wood with electrical tape holding them down, stuck inside a potato...
When I plugged it in, I got nothing.
I took a 18 week course for Electric AC/DC power, and I don't remember a thing from it....
What am I messing in the fry anything circuit?
