I am not quite sure what you are saying. Most of the time NEC is fine for audio. Its how the equipment is installed that causes it to lack in performance.My point is simple any manufactured product sold and used in the USA must be listed. having said this
safe usage outside of NEC code yields a better sound and Rex you know this. the IEC has a required line noise suppression inside it.
some feel it adds noise to remove does no harm and a possible better sound
any sold code compliment device like the one above must use a ARCH breaker for all outlets
the workaround is hard wired . Do you offer this ? any sold device for use in the USA if above 125 volts does not require an ARCH breaker and most all audio is better off at the higher voltage in the USA. most all grounding devices sold would work far better if they were used as the only point in grounding. but again code does not allow this method in a simple way.
I realize my response is a bit late but wanted to offer a few thoughts.I'm in a NYC condo (old schoolhouse built in 1890's but converted- rewired in late 1980's
I want to install a single run 20 amp dedicated line. I'm told about all I can use is 10 gauge BX cable (named for the Bronx, where it was invented) since I'm going in wall for most of the 50' run.
I'm powering a Niagara 7000 that my entire system plugs into. I would like to terminate the run with an 10 Amp IEC and plug that directly into the Niagara, (even if it means I gave to have a duplex installed and wire it to the IEC myself later.
Any thoughts as to options and configurations? I imagine there isn't any way to create my own ground to pipes, etc.
Would love it if the audio grade power breakers made for Europe were available here, but seems there aren't any.
