Installation:
The PRM200 power source connection must be adequate for use at 20 amps. We recommend
a properly grounded 30-amp circuit, wired with 10-gauge wiring, if continuous operation near
20 amps is anticipated. A dedicated (nothing else connected) 20-amp circuit is the minimum
acceptable to comply with NEC requirements. Consult a qualified electrician if in doubt.
Please note the PRM200 cord plug requires a different style outlet than a conventional style
15-amp outlet.

The PRM150 requires a dedicated properly grounded 15-amp circuit to operate at capacity.
We suggest that a dedicated 15-amp breaker be installed at the breaker box for use with
the PRM150.
It is best if the PRM150 or PRM200 is located with other equipment so that extension
cords are not required. Heat is not a consideration when placing the power conditioner.
Plug all the AC power cords from all components directly into the back of the power
conditioner. This offers full line conditioning and filtering for your entire system.
Keep in mind that Knoll power conditioners can only do so much in the cases of lightning
strikes and large surges. If your area is prone to lightning strikes and large surges we
strongly suggest you have a whole house lightning arrestor installed. Ask you power
provider for more information.
The un-switched outlets are for components that require full time power such as VCRs or
TVs. If you wish to turn on your system via an existing component with remote control
access (such as a receiver with a switched ac outlet on the back), plug your receiver into the
un-switched outlet on the power conditioner (and read the section below on rear panel
trigger).
