FUSE/CIRCUIT BREAKER
A separate fuse/circuit breaker must be provided for each ice machine. Circuit breakers must be H.A.C.R. rated (does not apply in Canada).
TOTAL CIRCUIT AMPACITY
The total circuit ampacity is used to help select the wire size of the electrical supply.
The wire size (or gauge) is also dependent upon location, materials used, length of run, etc., so it must be determined by a qualified electrician.
WARNING
Never use an extension cord. If an outlet is not within reach of the ice machine’s power cord, have a proper amperage outlet wired closer to the ice machine.
