In the event of an electrical short, grounding
reduces the risk of electric shock. The grounding
wire in the power cord must be properly connect

Improper connections of the electrical-grounding
conductor increases the risk of electric shock.

When using a phase converter, the power from
the manufactured power leg (sometimes called
the wild wire) can fluctuate. Connect the manu
-
factured power leg to the S terminal to prevent
damage to the transformer. The wire from the S
terminal can handle some fluctuation because it
goes directly to the motor. The power going to the
R and T terminals goes to the transformer and
must be consistent to prevent damage.
