The MMG-1A operates on 220 Vac or 440 Vac by
changing the strapping on the two-change boards. You
must check the change boards before using the unit.
The ac input change board (fig. 7-57) and the dc input
board (fig. 7-58) must be properly configured to
receive the input voltage. As shown, when the 440-volt
input is used, double strapping bars must be used. If the
input cable connector plug has to be changed, be sure it
is wired correctly. The motor generator circuit is
equipped with a reverse-phase sequence relay. This
relay prevents the motor start circuit from energizing if
