I have an Enermax Revolution 85+ 1050Watt PSU.

Connected to Asus Rampage III Black Edition Intel X58 PCI-Express DDR3 Motherboard.

The other day, I noticed a loose fan lead on my Mobo, I plugged it back in, and BANG, yes I know turn off PC first. Yes a stupid moment.
PC stayed working was surprised but noticed one of my fans no spinning. But there was a burnt smell for a few seconds, and that went away.

Then yesterday I traced the loose fan lead, and it went to my PSU, and its there to monitor the speed of the PSU fan. I am just wondering what damage I have done, at the moment all is working ok.
 
All psu`s have primery and secondary transformers. or capacitors.
you might have blown a cap. or blown the fan sensor, or you might have just blown a 12v rail as your psu has 6x 12v rails.

if the psu is working when under full load then i would call that lucky and get it replaced when ever possible.
plugging a fan sensor lead back into the motherboard when powered should not have blown anything to be honest as i have done it loads of times, same goes with fans in my system when the computer has been powered and no issues.
something else caused the issue. but anyway recommend you get it replaced when ever the time is convenient.

+1 on replacing that PSU as soon as it's convenient.

It could just be that when something went bang, it only damaged that fan. If everything else except that one fan seems to be OK, then you've dodged a bullet. PSUs have a nasty habit of taking other hardware with them when they let go. A fan is cheap compared to a mobo or gfx card!
 
All is working under full load.

I did that with my old Corsair HX520 PSU, It ran for another year before it packed up. I managed to get it replaced by Corsair but the replacement packed up too.

In other words, it has survived but I wouldn't expect it to last as long as it should have.
