115 V DUPLEX RECEPTACLES
The 115V auxiliary power receptacles should only be
used with three wire grounded type plugs or approved
double insulated tools with two wire plugs.
The current rating of any plug used with the system
must be at least equal to the current load through the
associated receptacle (Refer to Table I ). Do not
attempt to connect power receptacles in parallel.

MOTOR STARTING
Most 1.5 hp AC single phase motors can be started if
there is no load on the motor or other load connected
to the machine, since the full load current rating of a
1.5 hp motor is approximately 20 amperes (10
amperes for 230 volt motors). The motor may be run
at full load when plugged into only one side of the
duplex receptacle. Larger motors through 2 hp can be
run provided the receptacle rating as previously stated
is not exceeded. This may necessitate 230V operation
only.
