I need to have the Neutral and Live wires from the power socket go into this Power Unit. The black cable is the power cable from a printer unit. The blue and white cables feed into the power unit. I've tested it and it works but I need a fix where the cables don't wiggle around and disconnect from the power cable.
The usual procedure is to obtain (use) "appropriate" (suitable) connectors on both sides. Ones that can interlock, or are strong enough to stay connected reliably.
The blue and white wires I put in there, they didn't come with the power supply.
Yes I know the best option would be to get the connectors. I was just thinking of a temporary solution (2 days) for testing while I get the connectors. I just got the parts and I'm itching to try out the valve with the PLC.

What connectors, that power supply needs a lead directly from it to your mains .
Cut the connector off the mains lead, strip the ends, screw into the power unit (lose those blue/white wires).
However such a unit is not intended to be free-standing in a domestic environment, it is intended to be
mounted on a DINrail and inside a box, so that the mains wiring is away from prying fingers.
The mains lead you use should be fused if the unit doesn't have its own fuse protection.
