Electric Requirements - Truper MOE-2A Manual

WARNING The equipment must be grounded to
prevent electric shock.
• Connect the plug into a properly grounded outlet. Not all
outlets are properly grounded, if you are not sure, check
with a qualified electrician.
• If the outlet available for the equipment is a 2-pole
(2-hole) outlet, DO NOT REMOVE OR ALTER THE
GROUND CONDUCTOR OF YOUR PLUG FOR ANY
REASON.
CAUTION • Connection to the power source must
be made by an electrical professional, following one of the
diagrams on page 8.
• Use a separate electrical circuit for the
CAUTION
motor. This circuit must not have conductors with a gauge
smaller than 12 AWG, and must be protected with a 20 to
30 A time delay fuse depending on the current of each
model.
• Before connecting the motor to the power line, make
sure that the voltage is equal to that indicated on the
motor nameplate. Operating with a lower voltage will
damage the motor.
CAUTION • The ground wire gauge must not be
smaller than the power supply wire gauge.
• It is recommended that the motor be supplied with a
circuit that includes a residual current circuit breaker with
a rated current of no more than 30 mA.
• The 0.560 kW motor has a built-in thermal protector to
protect against overheating. Motors from 0.746 kW to
1.491 kW do not have a thermal protector, it is
recommended to protect them by installing a motor
guard.
CAUTION
When using an
extension cord, make sure the
gauge is sufficient for the current
the equipment will draw.
Under-gauging will result in line
voltage drops, loss of power and
motor overheating. The following
tables show the correct gauges to
use depending on the length of the
cable and the ampere rating
indicated on the tool's nameplate.
If in doubt use the next higher
gauge.
* One of the conductors must be a grounding conductor. All conductors are of the same designation (gauge) including the grounding conductor.
WARNING
All wiring, electrical connections and grounding of the system must comply with MEXICAN
OFFICIAL NOM-001-SEDE, ELECTRICAL INSTALLATIONS (UTILIZATION) or local codes and ordinances.
A qualified electrician must be employed.
