3 WIRING REQUIREMENTS AND POWER SOURCE
VOLTAGE SELECTION
Wiring Requirements
No other appliance should share the circuit with the microwave
oven. If it does, the branch circuit fuse may overload and either
cause the oven to heat slower than expected or blow the fuse.
1. For Mode NE-1257
The oven must be on a SEPARATE, 20 Amp, 60 Hz-120V
GROUNDED CIRCUIT.
2. For Model NE-1757
a. This oven must be on a separate, 60 Hz GROUNDED
CIRCUIT-minimum 15 amps.
b. The microwave ovens are built to operate on 2 different
voltages (230 V or 208 V). Be sure that the voltage
selector connector (on the back of the oven) is set for
your power supply. Connecting oven to 230 volt line with
208 voltage setting is dangerous and may result in
overheating
shortening their life expectancy or possibly causing a
fire or other accident. Connecting oven to 230 volt line
with 208 voltage will lower the power output of the oven,
resulting in slower heating of the food. Panasonic is
NOT responsible for damage resulting from the use of
the oven with other than specified voltage.

Power Source Voltage Selection
The microwave oven Models NE-1757 & NE-2157 are factory
set for 208 V operation. For 230 V operation, the following
selection MUST be made.
(Step 1) Unscrew the voltage selection panel cover which is
located on the back of the oven. Do not remove any other parts
from the oven.
(Step 2) Remove the while connector and plug the black
connector into the socket.
(Step 3) Store the unused white connector in the rectangular
opening.
(Step 4) Reattach the voltage adjustment panel cover to the
cabinet.
For 230 V - Use black connector plug.
thus
For 208 V - Use white connector plug.
To go from 230 V to 208 V circuit follow steps 1-4 above,
except at step 2, plug the white connector plug into the socket
and store the black plug in the rectangular opening.
