The input a.c. power supply required for the particular furnace is specified on the furnace identity plate.
Mains supply requirements:
For single phase operation, 47 amps º 11.3kW
For 3 phase operation, 16 amps per phase = 3.8 kW per phase
Power consumption:
Furnace controller fitted with power turndown so it will not
draw maximum current available. For single phase operation
maximum consumption will be 7.0kW. For 3 phase operation
maximum consumption will be 2.3kW per phase.
