•United Kingdom: The voltage at the wall receptacle is 200 to 240 VAC between live and neutral, and between live and earth. The voltage is less than three VAC between earth and neutral.
•Europe: The voltage at the wall receptacle is 200 to 240 VAC between supply pins. The voltage between one supply pin and earth is 200 to 240 VAC. The voltage between the other supply pin and earth is less than 3 VAC.
Refer to the controller electrical requirements table earlier in this chapter for a description of the power specifications for the controller.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not plug components into any other type of power system. Contact your facilities manager or a qualified electrician if you are not sure what type of power is supplied to your work area.
