APW5, 1300W-2600W PSU
Power chord is not included with the APW5. It requires a C13 chord with a minimum current of 16A. We advise all users to purchase it separately according to their local wall-socket standard

Does this mean that i cant run 1 machine on a 110v 15amps or 2 machines on a 220v 30amps circuits because the power chord requires 16A minimum??



no.  


lets go slow  and explain  

 1300 watts / 110 volts = 11.81 amps

 2600 watts / 220 volts = 11.81 amps

so a 15 amp cord  x .8 = 12 amps     the 0.8  is  80 percent de rating factor due to your 24/7/365 day use.

so 15 amp cords should be good enough.

give me time to link a good 110-120 volt cord
