When the popper is purchased brand new, Cretors supplies both the male (end of cord) plug and the female (wall socket) outlet. You supply the electrician to install them. [Big Grin]

I think these were 30 amp twistlock connectors made by Hubbell.

Down Under here in Oz, our supply voltage is 240volts, so an appliance drawing 5100 watts would be a 3 phase supply.

There are a number of balanced AC power supplies out there; here's a rackmount from Furman:

It may not be appropriate for concession stand applications. The unit reduces noise, & it's likely that some customers *want* to hear the popcorn popping.
