Is this bridge rectifier dead? I made some photos so it will be almost clean to be seen good. I don`t have better Cam than that in my tablet.
I think it is. When the damage is in the begining of the board is that good? Is only the rectifier you think is gone or there is definitely other elements i should check?

I think that`s good for one begining.

I am waiting for your replays

please be extremely careful with open power supplies. The components still could have dangerous to life voltage load inside, even unplugged from the wall ! If you don´t know, what you are doing, let it go.

This power supply is originated from delta electronics, model delta GPS-350CB A. It´s so crappy that it should be recycled, even if it would power up at the moment.

Did you check the power switch of the psu?
Are the capacitors ok? Any bloated?

Hi
This is not my first open power supply. i use tester to discharge the capacitors. Sometimes use healthy pliers to be sure everything is ok(after using multimeter to see how many Voltages are in the capacitor).
I haven`t measure the capacitors yet. There is no switch between 0 and 1. There is only one for Type input voltage.
Is really Delta bad producer ?
The question is most about the dead rectifier bridge? is it really for replacement and what near to it elements to chech?

Have a nice day

delta is not a bad producer, it´s the OEM´s design
