Voltage And Circuit Protection - Porter Cable C2002 Manual De Instrucciones

GROUNDING CAN RESULT IN
ELECTRICAL SHOCK.
Do not modify the plug provided. If
it does not fit the available outlet, a
correct outlet should be installed by
a qualified electrician.
Repairs to the cord set or plug
MUST be made by a qualified elec-
trician.
Extension Cords
If an extension cord must be used, be
sure it is:
• a 3-wire extension cord that has
a 3-blade grounding plug, and a
3-slot receptacle that will accept
the plug on the product
• in good condition
• no longer than 50 feet
• 14 gauge (AWG) or larger. (Wire
size increases as gauge number
decreases. 12 AWG and 10 AWG
may also be used. DO NOT USE
16 OR 18 AWG.)
extension cord will cause voltage to
drop resulting in power loss to the
motor and overheating. Instead of
using an extension cord, increase
the working reach of the air hose by
attaching another length of hose to
its end. Attach additional lengths of
hose as needed.

Voltage and Circuit Protection

Refer to the specification chart for the
voltage and minimum branch circuit
requirements.
pressors can be operated on a 15
amp circuit if the following condi-
tions are met.
1. Voltage supply to circuit must
comply with the National
Electrical Code.
2. Circuit is not used to supply any
other electrical needs.
3. Extension cords comply with
specifications.
4. Circuit is equipped with a 15
amp circuit breaker or 15 amp
time delay fuse. NOTE: If com-
pressor is connected to a circuit
protected by fuses, use only time
delay fuses. Time delay fuses
should be marked "D" in Canada
and "T" in the US.
If any of the above conditions can-
not be met, or if operation of the
compressor repeatedly causes inter-
ruption of the power, it may be nec-
essary to operate it from a 20 amp
circuit. It is not necessary to change
the cord set.
