The [[TM504]], [[TM506]] and [[TM5006]] each have '''one compartment that can accommodate high-power plugins'''.


A metal cover to the left of the backplane connector pushes a switch in the rear of a high-power plugin in that compartment.

In the other, low-power compartments, a hole in the cover prevents this.  Smaller mainframes like the [[TM503]] may have no such covers at all.

In the high-power slot, the 25 V transformer windings can supply at least 1 A each instead of 0.5 A, and the +11.5 V<sub>DC</sub>/17 V<sub>AC</sub> supply is rated for at least 3.6 A instead of 1 A.  See the [[TM500 Series plug-in interface]] for more details.

The +11.5 V<sub>DC</sub>/17 V<sub>AC</sub> supply is separate from the rest of the slots and can float, it is rated for ~4 A instead of 1.3 A.   
See the [[TM500 Series plug-in interface]] for more details.
 
The [[PS503A]] will deliver ±20 V at 1 A in a high-power slot, instead of only 0.4 A.
The [[PS505]] must be operated in a high-power slot to deliver its rated 4 A output, otherwise it is limited to 1 A (and the output is not floating).
