Turn off the device, replace the component, then restart it. For added safety, confirm ESD protection was applied.

I often press the power button and quickly disconnect the plug. That’s probably not ideal, but turning it off and then plugging it in might work. Or simply connecting it as is could be safer. I’d be extra cautious if someone were to open a PSU, but it seems you’re not doing that.
