Power Cord Plugs
The 115/230V Powermax380 power supplies are shipped with the following power cord configurations: the 60 Hz
units are shipped with a 115V plug on the power cord; the 50 Hz units are shipped without a plug on the power
cord. To operate at 230V, obtain a plug that meets national or local electrical codes. The plug should be connected
to the power cord by a licensed electrician. Also, note that some 115V receptacles may require a plug that is
different from the plug on the power cord. To install the required plug, refer to figure below. The installed 115V plug
and cords must conform to national or local electrical codes.
Grounding
To ensure personal safety, proper operation, and to reduce electromagnetic interference (EMI), the Powermax380
must be properly grounded through the power cord according to national or local electrical codes. Single-phase
service must be of the 3-wire type with a green or green/yellow wire for protective earth ground and must comply
with national or local electrical requirements. Do not use a 2-wire service! Refer to Grounding, in the Safety
section.
