3-wire or 4-wire single-phase 120/240 or

120/208 volt, 60 Hz AC-only electrical supply is

required on a separate circuit fused on both

sides of the line (time-delay fuse or circuit

breaker is recommended). DO NOT fuse

neutral. The fuse size must not exceed the

circuit rating of the appliance specified on the

nameplate
