Meanwell is an interesting example of a Chinese brand that has made enough of a reputation for being not-awful that others have started making fakes. (The same has happened with Fotek SSRs, you can no longer tell if you are getting a real rip-off of a Crydom or a fake of a rip-off device) The real Mean Well chassis supplies on the RS web site have hexagonal-punched covers.
