While doing a search on the web, I found the same model (really cheap) but wired for 280V, instead of the 230 V load that my wiring is supplies. Now, I was thinking of buying the cheap 280V model and installing it instead. Aside from rotating at a different speed and maybe some power inefficiencies, are there any other drawbacks of using the 280V model instead? are you sure it isn't 208 ? --http://webpages.charter.net/jamie_5" I'd be suspicious that the 280V was a misreading somehow of 230V. that sounds more plausible. I'm a little confused about a 230 volt circuit. In what part of the world does the utility supply 230v? jak ----- Depending on the age of the motor it could be rated 230V which now has crept up to 240V just as once we had 110V, then 115V then 120V as nominal voltages -(except for the radio people who settled on 117V and assumed that that was what you got.). Here in New Zealand, the mains voltage is 230 volts, likewise Australia. |
