Hi guys,
I am confused about the way a power cord plug should be connected. We have a single phase, 200-240VAC, 50Hz machine. I have a plug with L1, L2, L3, Neutral and Ground. I thought that we were supposed to connect this plug line to line (L1 and L2) but people tell me that it should be Line to Neutral (L1 and N). This machine was tested here in the U.S but using a single phase plug that has L1,L2, and Gnd only. I thought that if we where to connect the machine to L1 and N we would get only 115VAC, is this incorrect?
Thanks
Greg
