What pdu to use (120 or 240 Volt)

I just got a KA3 miner and have a question about what pdu to order. On Amazon they have the L6-30P with the c13 plugs that I need but it comes at 120V or 240V.

I bought the 240V pdu thinking I needed the extra voltage but my brother brought up that the c13 to c14 cords have 2 hot lines of 120V when he measured it. The KA3 miner has 2 power cords so would it be overloaded with 480V if both plugs are connected?

Did I order the wrong pdu? Or am I just really confused?

I have no clue. Im sure some of the guys in here will know though. Just curious, where did you buy your KA3 from?

You need to supply the miner 240v. So your pdu must be plugged into a 240v supply that caters for its recommended amperage. The miner needs 2 x 240v. The miner uses this a 240v overal supply. Supplying it with 2 x 240v cables from the pdu does NOT equate to supplying it with 480v.

But if in doubt you must seek the services of a registered electrician.

Vosk has a video used as guidance . Once again, it’s guidance and you must seek assistance from an electrician if you are at all unsure
