Instead of going with hardwired cables, the NX-8060 uses a modular cable design. Having the modular connections on the power supply is what gives it the extra depth over some of the hardwired power supplies we have recently reviewed. All the cables are also sleeved. All cables are approximately 50cm long (not taking into account any small strands they may break off into). Cable layout is as follows:

Fixed connectors	Modular connectors
20+4-pin motherboard connector 4+4-pin connector PCI-Express connector	cable 1: 3 x 4-pin Molex connector cable 2: 2 x 4-pin Molex and 1 x floppy connector cable 3: 2 x 4-pin Molex and 1 x floppy connector cable 4: 3 x SATA connector cable 5: 3 x SATA connector cable 6: 1 x PCI-Express connector cable 7: 4+4-pin connector

Without an included manual, I was unable to look into the protection measures this power supply has. After contacting Nexus with this inquiry I received the answer I was looking for. Since the answer I got was more detailed than any user manual would ever include, I have pasted it directly below for your pleasure.

OVER VOLTAGE PROTECTION
Voltage Source Protection Point
+3.3V 3.76V-4.8V
+5V 5.6V-7.0V
12VDC 13.5V-16.5V

OVER-CURRENT PROTECTION
OUTPUT VOLTAGE Max. over current limit
+3.3V 60A
+5V 48A
12V1 30A
12V2 30A
12V3 30A
12V4 30A

SHORT CIRCUIT PROTECTION
Output short circuit is defined to be a short circuit load of less than 0.1 ohm.
In the event of an output short circuit condition on +3.3V, +5V ,+12V1,+12V2,+12V3 or 12V4 output, the power supply will shutdown and latch off without damage to the power supply. The power supply shall return to normal operation after the short circuit has been removed and the power switch has been turned off for no more than 2 seconds.
In the event of an output short circuit condition on -12V output, the power supply will not be damaged. The power supply shall return to normal operation as soon as the short circuit has been removed. and the power switch has been turned off for no more than 2 seconds.
