Cblood Posted December 7, 2007 Share Posted December 7, 2007 I have searched the site and although I see a few things on 240 volt hook up there is no real explanation. I see jumpers on the boards and while easy to move, what is the exact wiring that will take place from the panel to the LOR....I'm assuming that 1 neutral and 2 hots and the jumper on the LOR board takes care of the loading of the neutral.Can someone who has utilized the 240 connection comment as to the correct hook up of the input connectorsThanksCurt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Harvey Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 CurtThe 240V hookup is to allow the LOR boards to operate in non US countries where the mains supply is typically 240V 50Hz operation. The jumper as I understand it selects a different tap to control the voltage output from the on-board transformer which supplies the on-board electronics. I believe the power electronics (tri-acs) handle 110 or 240V supply without problems.For our 240V supply, the connection is the same as in the US - one hot wire and a neutral.Regards Geoff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cblood Posted December 8, 2007 Author Share Posted December 8, 2007 Thank you, that makes sense now! I was looking at the 240v / 120v that we have going on in this country.Merry Christmas!Curt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orneryolbiker Posted December 8, 2007 Share Posted December 8, 2007 I order to run lor controllers at max amperage, they are designed to run two 120volt inputs from say two seperate 20 amp breakers, simply put it divides a sixteen channel controller into two 8 eight channel controllers at 15 or 20 amps depending on the controller. At least that is my understanding. I may be full of soup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
