PDU AP8853 in US
I am trying to figure out if a PDU AP8853 that is build for LAM, EMEA, GCN, APJ can be installed in US and I am not sure if possible or not without any modifications to it. It comes with IEC-309 32A plug which is 3 prong plug. According to the plug manufacturer the plug in US can have 2 hots and a ground, and in EU hot, neutral and a ground and here is the link to plug IEC-309 32A plug
Also the PDU internally schematic diagram is this
Now, in the US getting 240V you have to have 2 hots, each carrying 120V. Is this particular model AP8853 compatible with 240 voltage in US? I was told that it can be because When there are dual hots, the 2nd hot would be the neutral for the 1st and the 1st would be the neutral for the 2nd, to complete the circuit. Is that possible true in this scenario?
