Solder all pins on both sides, ensuring the solder goes all the way under the pins...
Before connect this bus to your power supply check for shorts with the help of a
multimeter, this is done to be sure each pin is not connected to its neighbor. Keep in
mind that all the ground pins are connected between them on the PCB so don’t panic
if your multimeter shows continuity between those pins even without noticeable
shorts
Connect your Passive Bus to your power supply with the help of a 16 to 16 pin
Eurorack power connector, or (If you are more advanced DIYer) wiring from the
provided solder pads (at the left side on the picture)
