7 CHAPTER2 TIP: Since the MJF-212A does not require a dedicated neutral, it can tolerate elevated voltages from ground and can be connected between line-line terminals in a 120 V 3-phase Wye system. This results in 208 V AC between lines (nominal) and will therefore draw less current for the same ou...

8 CHAPTER2 NOTE: For best performance, the AC cable voltage drop should not exceed 10 volts, or 10 percent at 115 volts and 5 percent at 230 volts. Make sure that even with the AC voltage drop, the AC voltage always stays in the operating windows. The minimum electrical service amperage required by ...
