WARNING
DO NOT use anything that uses the same amount of watts that your circuit can handle, for example, if
you have a 120 volt outlet on a 15 amp circuit the max for that outlet is 1800, thus you need to stay
WELL UNDER that amount. If you use exactly 1800 watts and the breaker does not trip then the
resistance of the wires and connections can heat up causing a fire. The further from the breaker box
the greater the resistance.
volts times amps = watts
watts divided by volts = amps
watts divided by amps = volts
Prior to powering up the system, we recommend that you check your breaker box for the amps for each
circuit, commercial buildings or homes are rated 120 volts (note that double breakers are double the
current, if your household voltage is 120 then double breakers are 240 volts).
In order to power up the system you would need sufficient circuits. Like other appliances, EB3600-AB
expansion unit requires a set amount of volts.
Use two separate circuit lines
Do not use multiple electrical outlets on one circuit line
