Died mid print, bad Power Entry Receptacle, should I be worried?
-
During a long print, my duet mini 5 + system just went dark, like we had a power outage, my UPS kicked in at the same time maybe a spike or dip (3d printer not on UPS or power surges), but no other items flickered or went out. But the printer never came back on. Using a multimeter found my Entry Connector Receptacle (link below) was no longer working, but the fuse within Entry Connector Receptacle is fine. Verified correct working tone out on a spare. The bad one only gave 2 out of 3 tine backs.
Should I be worried something else is bad or shorted before I replace it and turn it back on? Going to do some tone-outs and have everything disconnected. Then once the bad part is replaced I will add back each powered part one by one.
I suspect and hope this little extra money I spent on a smart Entry Connector Receptacle saved the rest of my printer electronics and power supply
Thanks!

@gallaghersart added each part back and all is good, the Entry Connector Receptacle blew but not the fuse within the Entry Connector Receptacle, kinda strange but had a spare part on hand so all good

Did the UPS do a self test?
