ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS
Voltage
The maximum allowable voltage variation is ±6% of
the rated voltage on the ice machine model/serial
number plate at start-up (when the electrical load is
highest).
All ice machines are factory pre-wired with a power
cord only, no plug is supplied.
Fuse/Circuit Breaker
A separate fuse/circuit breaker must be provided for
each ice machine. An electrical disconnect switch
must be provided if the ice machine is hard wired
(wired without a plug).
Total Circuit Ampacity
The total circuit ampacity is used to help select the
wire size of the electrical supply.
The wire size (or gauge) is also dependent upon
location, materials used, length of run, etc., so a
qualified electrician must make the determination.
