[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1535140, member: 46727"] That's an important point made by member RadDave with regard to proper grounding. If the Mexican power outlets are not grounded, (two female connectors vs three) you'll need to find a way to ground or isolate the UPS from the mains. I'm sure a local electrician in Mexico who is familiar with their power line systems would be able to advise you on how to do that. (By the way, modern electrical code here in all 50 states of the US call for polarized grounded outlets.) [/QUOTE]
