Set your device for 220-240VAC Many devices have a switch on the power
supply for this. Some devices simply have an input range of 100-250VAC.
Tie your device hot to leg 1
Tie your device neutral to leg 2
Tie your device ground to the neutral/ground of the power outlet.
Can you post a picture of the outlet and of the power cord recptical on
your device?

Ok... sorry to beat this horse but I'm apparently not following you.
There are three lugs my shiny new male plug has.
1-120v leg1 from single phase source
2-120v leg2 from single phase source
3- Neutral wire which bonds to ground at building main panel from
power company.
Cloud Core has three wires feeding the power supply.
1-120v leg (1 or 2) from single phase source
2-Neutral
3-Ground
A) I completely understand how I can take a single 120v wire from leg1
or leg2 of the power source and then take the neutral to both neutral
and ground of the router power supply and make this work - thats easy
- but not code.
B) I also understand how I could take a neutral, a ground and one hot
wire with voltage anywhere from 110-250v and it will work with cloud
core power supply. (but not I do not have this configuration at source)
C) I do not understand how you can take two hots and a neutral and
turn that into anything (just by using a cable) that the router can
use unless that cable is doing nothing more than what I described
above in "A"

Here is the info on AC power arrangement
http://www.oempanels.com/what-does-single-and-three-phase-power-mean
The CCR specs show it having :
Dualpowersuppliesforredundancy,110-250Vinput,IECconnectors
which means that, you can use either 110 or 220 or 240 on the same
power supply.
All you would have to do is match the power cables...

Cloud core. There is a difference between having a hot (80-250v),
a neutral and a ground, vs. a neutral and two 120v hots. I
believe the router can handle more than 120v but not in the sense
that its being delivered on two 120v legs with a neutral and no
ground. Its a 3 prong twist lock type receptacle. If there is a
way I'd like to be educated (aside from pulling one of the hots
and hooking the neutral to ground as well on my new non-code
engineered power cable. Educate me.....
I think I'm just going to plug it into the normal 120v 20amp plug
on the wall behind the rack though, seems like the best way
forward considering the options I was just trying to accommodate
the customers request prior to plan B.

Tim,
In most cases you can split the hot leads on the 240v outlet
into two 120v circuits. There are adapter pigtails for this if
you don't want to hardware it.
>From memory, our local hardware store sells these (in the US).

I would think something like this might be the safer option:

That said I'm not an electrician and I think that question
might be best answered by one.

I need to place a 120v normal 1U router in a rack that
only has 240v twist lock receptacles available for power.
I need to put a UPS there so I just looked for a 240v UPS
with the right plugs but because they are made for a lot
larger load they were way bigger (and more expensive) than
what I was looking for. SO... anyone have a better way to
do this? I have considered taking one leg and bonding the
neutral and ground, but.....
