Reply: There is a red sticker on the back of it says 115V AC so i
would assume that it is not one of the heavier models. It is a rack
mont unit as opposed ot being in the black case however. but its stil
the standard 5 piece unit labled at 115 V AC. I am using a standard
three prong power cord. I live in Maryland. Annpolis baltimore
area. Broken psu broken power swtich, transformer, what do i test
how what do i need to get to fix it and where. I can install any
parts my self i just need to know exactly what to buy.
