should only be performed by a qualified electrician.
A qualified and licensed electrical contractor should install power lines, and the
installation should comply with all applicable regulatory agencies. A dedicated
circuit should be used, with the shortest distance possible between the power
source and the turntable.
For more information on electrical installation, see page 17.
