[Elecraft] Question about 120 volts vs. 240 volts house supply toKPA 500

[K9ZTV]

Agree.  Electrical work should always be done by a licensed electrician which, among other benefits, provides CYA if someone is hurt or dies.  I know of one instance in which a non-electrician wired up his own hot tube, invited friends over, and before the night was over had electrocuted two of them.  DIY electrical work will often void homeowners insurance coverage, too.

Go with the pros.
