6.3. 

Electrical Installation 

 

Before connecting electrical power, pay close attention to the electrical data on machine 
plate. Ensure that the voltage of the power supply is compatible with that specified on 
plate. All installation work must be carried out by qualified personnel. Always consult 
machine tool wiring diagram before connecting power. 

 

 

LOCK OUT/TAG OUT any and all power disconnect switches 
before performing any work on equipment. 

 

 

 

 

Be sure to observe local and federal electrical codes in effect. 
Observe the technical supply conditions imposed by the power 
supply company. 

6.3.1. Selecting Voltage 

Many large industrial facilities run on 480v 3phase @ 60Hz electricity. Most machine 
tools in the United States require a step down transformer as the machine tools, 
typically, run on 200 +/- 10% VAC. 

208-230v is the standard voltage for MP Systems 

units. 

(Optionally, 480V units can be purchased, voltage cannot be changed in the field)

 

Utilizing machine tool voltage makes lockout/tag-out far easier and allows it to comply 
with most local regulations. 

Power can either be pulled from a separate drop, or from the machine tool using the 
provided circuit breaker in the installation kit if the machine tool breaker allows.
