Please forgive me if this is a stupid question... I'm treading into an area where I not at all knowledgeable, and my attempts to find an answer to this question have not been successful.
We have a dedicated circuit in our machine room, currently unused, with a Leviton L6-30 plug. We want to use that circuit for a portable air conditioner with a NEMA 6-20P connector. The air conditioner expects 250V, 60Hz, 1-phase,
20A. As far as I can tell, the L6-30 plug implies that the circuit is 230V and 30A, so it should be more than adequate for the portable air conditioner. The first question is, am I right about that? And the second question is, how do I plug a cord with a NEMA 6-20P connector into a circuit with a Leviton L6-30 connector? Is it simply a matter of buying a converter to go from one to the other, or do we need to remove the connector from the end of the cord and install a new connector, or what?Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
