2.3. CONNECTION TO A POWER SUPPLY SYSTEM
The commercial welding unit is rated at the input power supply voltage
230 V (- 23/+18 %).
WARNING!!!
If the input power supply voltage exceeds 450 V, the warranty
of the manufacturer of the welding unit would be invalid.
The power supply connector, power cable cross-section, and supply-line fuses shall be selected with
consideration for the technical characteristics of the welding unit.
2.4. REQUIREMENTS FOR AN ELECTRICAL OUTLET
WARNING!!!
The parameters of an electrical outlet for the power supply of
the welding unit must correspond to the power supply voltage and consumption
current of the welding unit (see Subsection 1.1, "Technical characteristics").
Connect the welding unit to an electrical outlet that is made for three-wire
earthing plugs.
