Powering your load from a bench supply will simply help you understand your load a little better. Are you sure it's only taking 4A? Even at switch on? What's the inrush current? You mention 1500uF. Depending on what sort of capacitors they are, that could amount to a high inrush current, possibly enough to damage your PSU.

There's nothing obviously wrong with your PSU schematic.

Cheers,
