ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS 

The Paragon Theater Pop 12 and the Professional Series 12 oz popper require a properly-grounded 120 
volt supply with a 15 amp circuit.  The Paragon Theater Pop 16 Popper and the Professional Series 16oz 
popper require a properly grounded 120 volt supply with a 30 amp circuit.  The 12 oz popper has a current 
draw of 15 amps.  The 16 oz popper has a current draw of 24 amps. (Export voltage is 230VAC.) 

We recommend your Paragon Popcorn Machine be plugged directly into a dedicated outlet.  Extension 
cords may create a safety hazard and reduce its performance.  

Be sure outlet accepts three (3) prong grounded plug.  DO NOT use a three (3) prong to two (2) prong 
adapter.
