The Followspot 1200 has two AC input voltage settings, 208 and 230 VAC, and two AC frequency settings, 50 and 60 Hz. The voltage and frequency settings require changing the connections on the corresponding terminal strip. See the Voltage and Frequency Selection section in this chapter.

Always connect the Followspot 1200 to a protected circuit with an appropriate electrical ground to avoid the risk of electrocution or fire.

To determine the power requirements for the Followspot 1200 see the label affixed to the fixture. Alternatively, you may refer to the specifications chart in the Technical Information chapter of this manual.

The listed current rating indicates the maximum current draw during normal operation. Please refer to the Sizing the Circuit Breakers section in the Appendix chapter of this manual.

The fixture side of the Followspot 1200’s power cord enters the control panel through a strain relief boot. This side of the power cord is hard-wired to the fixture. Therefore, there is no removable power connector on the control panel.

The outlet side of the power cord is bare-ended. This way, the users will be able to equip it with the power plug that best matches the local standards and regulations.
