I'll also give an endorsement for Astron power supplies. Not that you need them but I have two RS-50M (50 amp model - linear power supply with voltage and current meters) that have been in constant service since the mid-1980s or about 35 years each.. And neither has any fans. They are both cooled by convection and massive heat sinks. Astron power supplies are well-built like tanks, expertly engineered to allow for plenty of design margin with the components and have quick-acting protective circuitry for over-voltage protection to keep your expensive equipment safe.
Other power supply brands are cheaper, both in the linear and switching variety, but you have to make sure that corners were not cut, margins minimalized, etc. to shave overall costs. You do in-fact get what you pay for and you can sleep well at night if you are like me and leave the Astron power supplies turned on 24/7. My two Astron power supplies have never let me down.
You also asked:
About how much current would a 30A power supply draw on 120VAC when on but idle with no load? Would a switching PS draw less than a linear in that state?
The short answer is not much, probably less than 250 mA AC. I have a clamp-on ammeter and a 120 VAC / 25 amp breakout box that would enable me to answer your question exactly at least for a Astron RS-50M under no load. I'll try to get one of my grandsons to help me move some storage boxes around to find those items. Unfortunately, I am wheelchair bound and have very little upper body strength to "dig" through my storage boxes so it may be a week or two before I can lay my hands on the test equipment. I'll let you know when I find them.
