It's identical to the one used for the Acorn clock box, and an Acorn 
Atom.  In fact mine are actually labelled "Atom Power Supply".  BTW, 
it's not a "Level 1" terminator, just an active terminator, 
theoretically better than the passive ones used later, and by SJ.  If 
you were running a really long Econet, it would be the best choice, but 
for short networks, it won't much much difference.

Anyway, the PSU spec is 8VDC at up to 1.8A into a 2.5mm power plug, 
centre-positive.  Given its origins, it can provide a lot of current, 
though for a terminator or clock box, it hardly needs to!
