From the project
Eurorack 10-pin power breakout, designed to fit a standard breadboard
The LEDs are optional, and can be omitted and/or replaced with extra header pins. I use the convention of red for +12V and yellow for -12V. I use a minimum of 1k ohm resistors for LEDs, but higher values may be used to reduce the brightness.
The DPDT power button is optional and can be replaced with header pins and jumpers, or omitted entirely. If omitted, pins 2 and 3 must be bridged for DPDTA and DPDTB connections (Note: pin 1 is identified by square pad).
