You really need to talk to a licensed electrician in your area.  The electrical
code isn't standard across the country.  What works here might not be "code" in
your location.  It becomes a question of - do you just want it done, or done
"right"?

You may find that there is no need to change your PW-1, only to select the
proper outlet.
