RECEPTACLE INSTRUCTIONS (Plug-In HCS)
The plug-in HCS is fitted with either a NEMA 14-50 or 6-50 plug
extending from the bottom of the HCS enclosure. Regulations
limit this plug to a maximum of 6 feet (1.8 m) in length, including
the plug head. For this reason, the plug-in HCS must be mounted
above the NEMA receptacle and must also be located within 6 feet
(1.8 m) of it.
In both NEMA 14-50P and 6-50P configurations, the ground pin is
located at the furthest point on the plug. It is recommended that a
NEMA 14-50R or 6-50R receptacle be oriented accordingly, such
that the ground socket is at the lowest point.
