If codes permit and a separate
grounding wire is used, it is
recommended
that a qualified
electrician
determine that the
grounding path is adequate.
A 120-volt, 50- or 60-Hz, AC-only, 15 or
20-ampere, fused, electrical supply is
required. Time-delay fuse or circuit
breaker is recommended.
It is recom-
mended that a separate circuit serving
only this appliance
be provided.
In areas where the recommended
voltage is not available,
it is necessary
to install a transformer with a minimum
rating of 1500 watts. The output voltage
of the transformer must be 120 volts. If
the transformer does not provide for an
electrical ground, a separate external
grounding wire must be installed in
accordance
with local codes and
ordinances. Such a transformer can be
purchased
locally. (See Figure 1.)
