What are the electrical requirements for a soda/snack machine?
Most soda vending machines run on 115 volts at about 10.5 amps. Most commercial grade three prong outlets will be acceptable to power a vending machine. Power consumption tends to run about 3.1 – 4.4 kWh/day for the lighting and 3.5 – 4 kWh/day for the refrigeration. The power consumption can vary depending on if the machine is placed outside or other extreme environment.
