Hello all,
I am trying to understand something here about power, hopefully someone can help me...
My first thing is that I want to power Elation Platinum Beam 5R's with L6-20 connectors and cable that is 240v (or probably 208v I guess?) from the 3-phase 100A distro. The specs on the unit say that it will accept power from 110v to 240v so I would think this would be ok BUT, is it ok since the 208v connection has H, H, and Ground instead of H, N and Ground? Is it ok that the unit will see power on the neutral as well as the hot?
Second, I could put all 6 of my Elation Beams on one 20A circuit as they would fit but I would have to use three L6-20 "twofers" to make it happen. Does anyone see any trouble with that? The total cable run would be less than 100', probably 75' at most.
Third, is there any problem keeping the edison 5-20 connector on the unit and using adapters to the L6-20 since I will most likely not be using these driven by the 208v that often?
Just not sure and I dont want to melt anything (or worse). Help!
Thank you!
