I have a 36V 8.8 Amp qualtek power supply that I want to bring for a friend. I'm not planning on checking bags so it will have to be carry on. Is this ok to bring on a plane? I can't seem to find any rules on power supplies on airplanes in the US.

It will depend on how the airport security people see it. If they think the unit's size or mass or sharp edges make it useable as a weapon, they'll say "no." Probably they'll say nothing. How risk tolerant are you?

If by "power supply" you mean something you connect to a wall socket, and which can then supply DC power to some electronics, then certainly -- people routinely fly with those in their cabin baggage (they might call them laptop chargers instead, but a power supply is what it is).
If you're speaking about a battery bank that doesn't need to be receive grid power while it puts out DC, then different rules apply.
yes, DC power supply, plugs into wall and produces 36V DC it is a metal rectangle, looks like this amazon.com/ALITOVE-Transformer-Universal-Regulated-Switching/dp/…
