 Single-phase service must be of the three-wire type with a green (CSA) or green/yellow (CE/CCC) wire for the
protective earth ground and must comply with national and local requirements. Do not use a two-wire service.

lock-style outlet.
 To operate the system on a lower amperage circuit,
attach the female end of the 120 V/15 A
(NEMA 5-15P) plug adapter to the power supply’s
NEMA twist lock-style plug.
