NOTE: The INC-800A intermittently draws more than 15 amps of current.
We recommend that you either install a 20 amp circuit or do not run any-
thing else on the same circuit as the INC-800A or you may trip the breaker
supplying the AC power.
DANGER – Never alter AC cord or plug provided – if it does not fit the
outlet, have proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician. Improper
connection can result in a risk of an electric shock.
