Introduction
CobraMarine™ M1500 Output Waveform
The output waveform is referred to as “square wave” or “modified sine wave.” It is a stepped waveform designed to have characteristics similar to the sine wave shape of utility power. A waveform of this nature is suitable for most AC loads (including linear and switching power suppliers used in electronic equipment, transformers and motors). Some very sensitive electronic equipment may not operate satisfactorily on “square wave” or “modified sine wave.”
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) Outlet
Test the GFCI periodically to make sure it is operating properly (see page 16 for details).
