Knowing very little about AC I need to ask.
I have some telcomm equipment power by an AC power strip with six outlets.
The strip is powered from an AC/DC inverter.
The are five pieces of equipment powered from the AC power strip.
(The sixth outlet is empty.)
Customer wants to move off of the existing inverter -both AC and DC over to the new one I just installed.
Customer still wants/needs to use the power strip.
Can I make a cheater cord and back feed AC into the sixth outlet
of the AC power strip and then move the main feed of the power strip to the new outlet?
The two circuits (old AC and new AC) both come from the same power panel but are on different sides of the panel. (CB 9 New -- CB 10 Old)
Panel is labled 208 volts. I'm think there maybe a phase difference between the left and right side of the power panel (????)
