This information does not apply to special commercial installations involving relatively high voltage
requirements or to industrial installations. There is some possibility of errors or omissions, for which the Department of Commerce cannot assume responsibility. This information should not
be taken as final in the case of industrial or highly specialized commercial installations. It would be impossible for the Department of Commerce to maintain complete data on every foreign industrial installation.
For special equipment for commercial use or heavy equipment for industrial use, the current characteristics for the area of installation should be obtained from the end user.
