Electrical requirements
120V: Olympic specifies a 20 A breaker, NEMA 5-15, and #12 (#10 over 40 ft) copper wire. Rule of thumb: a breaker of about 125% of the kiln's draw — roughly 20A for this model at its highest-amperage voltage. Always confirm the breaker, wire and receptacle with your electrician.
