Hi Jim, I understand that the update to the National Electrical Code now dictates that all NEW work 220V outlets have a neutral in addition to the ground. This makes good sense, especially in light of your email. Buy the way, legal or not, The Collins 30S-1 amp had an internal 120V outlet under a shelf in the power supply. This was to facilitate installing the power supply for a KWM-1 within the amplifier PS cabinet. I don't doubt that other manufacturers and homebrewers do similar things with blowers, relays and control circuits. Dangerous? I suppose under the right circumstances it could be. For once, I can go along with the NEC folks.
73 and stay safe, John, W4AWM ______________________________________________________________ AMRadio mailing list List Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/amradio Partner Website: http://www.amfone.net Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.html Post: mailto:[email protected]
